Internal parasites?

[Robka]

I just lost my LFW (Lineatus Fairy Wrasse) to what I think was internal parasites. The water conditions were all good, he showed no sign of illness. He was eating fine. Feces had some stringyness to it, but it was not white. Next morning fish was white and stiff on the bottom. The only explanation I can come up with is something internal. If it is parasites how long should I leave the QT running before adding new fish, or should I treat the QT? I'm not familiar if the parasite leaves the tank with the dead fish or not?

Thanks for your help,

Robka

If you suspect internal parasites.... treat QT with Prazipro... it only takes one application. Better off safe than sorry.
