Picked up two 5 to 6 inch wild Peru monos

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I pretty sure they have velvet. I pumped the temp up but not done the trick. just added salt. Other fish have it now and i have a motoro and large clown loach. any help on how to treat would be appreciated?

Clean water and water changes is the first step.

I do w/c twice a week. The bass haven't eaten for 4 -5 days as I'm tring to get them off live. Would this be the wrong time to try this as they 're probably weak from the velvet. Should I put some live in there till i hopefully get rid of the infection?
 
They need energy to fight off disease...so id say feed em. Will they not take silversides either?
 
That's how my guy looked, he's is about 10 inches and hits food very hard, hits so hard that I have to keep the waterlvl down so he doesn't hit his head, he's pics.oh ya and streaks on glass r from him Haha, good luck, crazy fish when older
