NTT breathing heavy!! Help!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Aquarisol or coppersafe is very mild but very effective. Sometimes Ntt's can carry flukes for awhile. Lots of waterchanges and up the aeration because its having a harder time breathing because of the inflammed gills.
Hey krichardson, the dat that passed, was it the one you were telling me about?
 
Good luck dude, I've killed 4 Dats one by one (dats arent cheap here), all having these symptoms.
Whatever you do dont use any powder meds cause I tried some tetracycline as a last resort and the poor bugger choked and died.
I reckon you should just keep good water and mild meds, I reckon you should leave the other good one alone. I wouldn't be goin and tryin to fix what aint broke.
 
Well my little NTT is looking a little better this morning..

Hopefully he pulls thru.

Thanks everyone. I will keep u updated.

Regretfully yes.
 
Just wanted to give everyone an update on the condition of my Ntt.

He is still in the hospital tank breathing hard. Im not sure what else to do?? He is looking pretty good..(stable,swimming around). He even ate some krill last night, but he is still breathing hard.

Any ideas of what I should do now?
 
What meds are you treating it with?Also,were you able to get those tiger scats from Nic?

I have treated with Jungle Parasite clear 3 times so far.
I couldn't find the aquarisol that u were talking about.

No I didn't get them...He said he has someone who is supposed to b trading him some stuff for the tiger scats.
If that deal falls thru then Im next in line.

Krich, did u know that monster pets has a coupon on their website for buy 1 fish get 1 free?
I wish I would have known this the last time I went...I might go over there tomorrow, and get somemore indos. Thats if they have any good 1's left.
 
GOOD LUCK HAD 3 DATS DOING THE SAME THING ALL THIN BARS BOUGHT AT DIFFERENT TIMES ALL END DYING WITHIN 3 DAYS. THEY STOPPED EATING ASWELL. WHATEVER KILLED THEM DIDN'T EFFECT MY 7 ITS WHICH I THOUGHT WAS WEIRD. bUT IN YOUR CASE LEASE HES EATING SO THAT ONE GOOD SIGN THAT I DIDNT HAVE. GOOD LUCK

Thanks dude...
I hope he pulls thru..I lost 2 other Ntt's with this same problem.

Beautiful but weak,I have seen the Jungle products over the years but Inever used them.If you have to order the coppersafe or aquarisol on line and overnite it to you then do it if the stores dont have them.In the meantime in between time keep up water changes in the hospital tank add the aquarium salt.I did not know about Monsterpets online coupon,I'll look into it thanks this will help me get some of those swordspine snooks,check them out.
