Hedgedrew, you scared the crap out of me. I saw your name next to the title on the main page and I feared the worst.

 

[SteelMastiff]

Ya. Have you done formalin dips yet also?

I have not.

I think uv breaks down lot of these antibiotics.

I believe that to be the case also, so I am not running the UV at this time. Tank is actually lights out as well while attempting to medicate. I fear it might be to late for these guys, but I'm not going to let them go out without a fight.

Brook kills more rapidly than ICH and Velvet. Are you sure it's not brook? Didn't watch the video yet.

That combo of furan kanna and metro is a very good combo. Period!!!

You administer this combination simultaneously?

 

[SteelMastiff]

You administer this combination simultaneously?

I cannot speak for hedgedrew, but I can tell you that I have personally combined them multiple times... If I recall correctly this combo is similar to what was in Paragon 2 back in the day, which was a great product...

Sorry to hear of your losses. I had a clown loach for 6 years that beached himself on 3x6 inches of space. He was practically hanging off the edge he was so big, if he would have just flopped a millimeter he would have fell back into the tank. Frustrating

 

[hedgedrew]

Yes. Kanna and furan are good together. Kanna and sulfa and kanna and neo. All work well together. The metro can be used also. Esp if it's heximata or not sure if protozoan

 

[pktech]

Cool - I've got the metro & kana - need the furan. And now my watch begins...
(got reference)

 

[hedgedrew]

I like to do daily partial waterchanges in the 50 to 60 per range or more over the entire day when dosing antibiotics esp with no biological. Even with it it can get depressed however the kanna and furan anrent too bad. The neo is worse. And things like cipro really bang it. Just replace all water with water changes with new dose of antibiotics for replaced water. So fresh dose always in.

 

[SteelMastiff]

Well sadly the remaining two didn't make it... In a couple of short days the Eibli went from this



To this




The Coral beauty actually passed before the Eibli, and like the others the only real signs was respiratory distress. Really stinks that I couldn't manage to save even one of them, but by the time I showed itself I fear it was just to late.

That really sucks and does look like bacterial septicimea. But who knows if it was secondary and there was parasite first

 

[hedgedrew]

Now looking at it I may have changed strategy and dosed with cp and you would have had to feed or inject baytril.

Yes, once uv does not stop bacterial infection and an antibiotic will have to be used, the uv must be shut off.

The unknown is what makes me mental about this deal.

Fortunately both Chaetodon that were in with them are still doing well, as they were throughout this whole process. I did transfer them yesterday into a different tank as a precautionary measure, and will continue the treatments. I then will begin tank transfer with them.
