What´s wrong with my Polypterus ??

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Clean water is a must, what is your water change schedule like?

It would be a shame to lose these, they are top notch delhezi.
 
Hey Serg,

My water change schedule is about 10-20% per week.
I guess that´s enough for polys isn´t it?

But perheps it´s becaus of my new filteration.
I sold my Fluval Fx 5 and instead i bought a Jbl 1500....a much smaler one.
I done this because of the powerful filteration of my Fx 5,all my plant´s starts to die.
Now my plants grow up,like you can see in the picture´s.

Today the eye´s are still cloud,but not that much like two days ago.
So i gona make a big waterchange again.

....let´s hope.

Hey, I just lose my delhezi... Like your delhezi, his eyes turns to white and when i touched him it is rough(no slime coating)... I didn't know what to do so I quarantined it and add salt... but now, he is gone...
 
Hey,

Yeah perhaps a delhezi needs much better waterquality than other polys?
I don´t know why your delhezi died.
what are your watervalues ?

I just can guess that delhezi needs much better values than other´s.....especial the nitrit and nitrat value has an important role for them.

Hi,

I´m so disapointed...it start´s again,although i do some big waterchange.
Is there an other possibility?

Please help me....i really don´t know that to do....

Hi,

Okay let´s try to describe the symptoms.
Two polys are affected.
One of my delhezi (the same guy) and my new congcius.
The delhezi has two cloud eye´s and the congicus just one.
But the congicus also lost some mucous membrane up to his head.
Also both guy´s,i don´t know who to describe it, are abaft their heads a little bit bigger.
They both still eat but you can see that they are much lazy,than my other Polys.

So i think that´s it.
I will try to do some awesome shot´s now !
