  • update on my sick flowerhorn!

    after weeks of treatment using epsom and reg salt, jungle parasite clear, and api generalcure, both containing metro, i used a syringe to force feed geltek ampicillin. after 2 days, my fishes color started to come back. i also tried forcefeeding bloodworms, but he spit em out... this morning, i noticed him gobble up a couple tetra color bits... its the first time ive seen him go near food for almost a month! he is real skinny, almost all head- his body really shrank... seems his fins started to degenerate too... ima keep up the gel tek for a couple more days... no sign of the hernia, and no more stringy white poo! btw i got the geltek at petco, westhiemer and hillcroft/voss

        I'm really glad, Chris. Hope he continues to get better. I know how awful it is when one of our finned babies are sick!

        When you get time, stop by and see mine!
