a while back after (praziing) for a month my female marble i bought, I put her in my main tank. I lost her about two weeks later. I then noticed some redish/brown worms in my tank. Thought they were internal parasites, prazied my main tank, still saw them, rays were breeding and eating fine but i noticed I never saw any poo any more... I saw them push out some clear clowdy liquid instead. I knew I was in trouble. I read up on panacure, and dosed accordingly to 4 of my rays.... not my pregnant female. The reason I didnt wait was because i was worried about causing complications to the other females pregnancys if i waited to dose down the line. Well **** hit the fan. none of my rays are eating. My pregnant female that is due in july shows very very faint movement if any. And both of my leos now have thier spots shifting.
what I think happened. when i dosed with panacure I injected them into worms. when i dropped it in the water it could have come out of the worm a little. Also I think that when I dosed them it killed all the internal parasites as i saw lots of stuff the next few days, thinking alright its working! I think the panacure actually killed off some of my benifical bacteria, as my tank started to smell, and when i came home from work one day all three of my motoros stomachs were red and thier eyes were covered by some wierd coating. I think it sent my tank into a cycle. I imidiatly did a water change (this was 3 days after doing a waterchange and dosing). Ever sence I have been doing 50% water changes daily and have added biospirta. I am keeping it warm and dark. I added salt once but I have decided to just keep up on the waterchanges.
ANY HELP would be apriciated, im just hoping its not to late for all my rays.....
