Sick Discus Juvies

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
On the plus side, it looks like everyone loves the warmer water, I bumped the heater to 85 :D
They are a more aggressive at feeding and maybe even more interactive, Thanks for the tip Aquanero! :D
 
Cut it open see what's in there. Could be parasitic or bacterial it's hard to say. Were they dewormed at all? Did you get your microscope?
 
No I haven't got it, this is exactly what I wanted it for. I have the body in a zip lock in the fridge now..
As far as dewormed, I can't say for sure. One guy I purchased from did mention a quarantine and treatment, but I'm not sure about the other.
 
Im going to go out and do the best I can with a cheap microscope. Do
you have tips on the proper way to cut the fish open and prepare?
 
No I don't I can't help you there. I would try googling fish parasites and bacteria under a microscope and see what you get.
 
I think you'll need to do vid of this autopsy

Lol, I can't even figure out how to post a picture. I really have no idea what to expect. I'll do a couple Google searches like Tom said, maybe page Dr. Oddball, nudge nudge ;) and see how it goes.

Google it and there should be some discus forums that will help.
