Thai Silk is still not eating

[specialized002]

Ok, it's been 2 weeks. I treated w/ prazi pro, took all the crushed coral out, I even did a complete water change. He continues to crap white and won't eat. I got some ching mix, he attempted to eat yesterday but spit it out right away. Didn't even try to swallow it. What the hell? Someone please help, I've had him for 3 months now and has only grown 1/2" maybe!

Fill me in on the specifics... You had him eating at one time? Is the fish skinny? Is the poop stringy or just white? Is the belly bloated? What size is the fish? How did u give the meds?

The Prozi will not do anything for the internal parasite. Go buy Metro...........

Fish is 2", skinny, no belly bloating, just white crap, not stringy. I did a water change and adminstered prazi pro per specs on the back of the bottle. He was eating like a horse when I first got him. Pellets, bloodworms, flakes and now nothing. He's at least swimming around, just not eating.

I thought the metro he would have to ingest?

Hate to say it but alot of these Silks have this problem... I have a few friends that there fish stopped eating... Have u tried bloodworms? Most fish will consume bw even while sick... Thaw some bloodworms, then use metro or fenbendosole and mix in with the bloodworms and then re freeze it and see if he will eat...

This is incorrect bro... If this is how you feel, thats fine, but don't give false info to others.

This is correct... Call your pharmacist and ask what they use Metro for. Prazi is not for intestinal parasites.
