i caught my peacock bass twitching and scratching its body on the sand?! he swims great and eats great the other fish arent showing any signs. my bass doesnt have any ich. i feed em today and he took it nicely! maybe one minute later he barfed the stick right out it was a perfecct form it wasnt in any crumbles im asuming it just ate to much to fast. what should i do? i dont wanna lose my first bass and he was pretty expensive! oh yeah and btw there is no clear white stringy doodoo so idk what is the problem!? :cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry:
 
Thats a sign of ICH, do a WC and he will be fine.........Good luck.
 
no clue man, really does sound like ich though. best you can do is crank up the temp to 88-89F, do a wc, and add aquarium salt.
hmmph, what is the best way to do that? leave the light on more than usual? i have done a water change and added aquarium salt :) i hope this goes fine

uggggghhh but i dont see now white spots on the guy, yeeeep i have done those stuff just now! thanks i hope he goes out fine:)
 
do you have a heater on the tank? I took mine off my tanks for the summer, but its starting to cool down a bit. I put one back on my 150 a few days ago b/c I'm expecting a shipment of piquiti tomorrow morning.

NO WAYS! lol but i heard the fish canget ich from streess remember my fish was stressed because he needed friends? well i got 2 new bass and they swim together just fine i dont think it came from the two new fishes because i looked at them and there are no white spots on the fins nor body. is there any other symptoms i should look for?
