sick ebjd, did i do the right thing?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
my JD and EBJD spit out the bloodworms all the time. don't worry he's getting some. just stick to the medicating i had to seperate mine cause he had a bloated stomach and had ich. i medicated him in a 10 gallon for 2 weeks and when i knew he was cured i still medicated for another week just to make sure.
 
Good to know, thanks.. I will do that as well as a precaution.
I got so excited when he actually started looking at food and going after it instead of just hiding next to the driftwood.

I want to thank you guys for your help so far, I really appreciate it.
 
no problem... if your ever near detroit you can come get my mating pair lol. or maybe i'll drop them off when i move to corpus pretty soon.
 
He is now eating bloodworms tonight and kept them down!
I want to be very careful he looks like he might pull through, his colors are a little dulled still but he's not displaying his almost all black stress colors. Obviously he is improving but I'm up for suggestions on what I should do now.. Continue the treatment? Give the treatment a rest with just fresh clean water? I don't care if I sound like a noob cause these guys living through hex is probably pretty rare and I don't want to screw it up after doing so well.

Thanks!
 
i vary the diet every day and do weekly water changes with a uv running if that helps
 
i dont think ive had a ebjd that didnt get some sort of internal problems
