    You could feed frozen brine shrimp and Cyclops as well as crushed flake and a mixture of live foods you could get micro worm culture or vinegar eels culture's as well as baby brine shrimp

    Temperature 75-81F for Columbian blue tetras
  3. Colu
    I think a big group of Columbian blue tetras maybe 60 would look stunning in a tank that size rather than the rummy nose or cardinals and they are bigger so I don't think the winemillieri would eat them

    A couple of pellets twice a day

    They look like detritus worm's nothing to worry about just do more gravel vaccing to get rid of any leftover food or dead plant matter they feed off as you have focus i would treat with kanaplex in food for 7 days

    When treating with meds you need to turn off your UV steriliser and remove active carbon they will stop the medication from working I would treat with expel p it's a more powerful dewormer

    Looks like a growth it could also be swelling caused by an injury maracyn2 active ingredient is minocycline is effective at sinking some types of lumps and I would also add some aquarium salt 1 table spoon for 5 gallons at that level it shouldn't harm your plants and it will aid Gill function and add essential electrolytes to help reduce stress in your fish

    Depending of the size of your tank a nice group of black ruby barbs the males get beautiful breeding colours or Dennison barb are a bit larger but stunning both would do well with angelicus loach

    I think you will be fine you would be better off getting a young group of EBA and adding them all at the same time that should cut down on aggression instead of gradually add them

    If your still seeing symptoms after the Frist full course of treatment do a large water change and do another full course following the treatment schedule

    I just use a plants weights to stop it floating

  13. Colu
    If you Cory's are happy and breeding I wouldn't mess with water parameters
  14. Colu

    Welcome to the forum

    Welcome to the forum nice tank what fish have you ordered
  17. Colu
    The reason you do a water change after 24hr is to remove the dead parasites and some of the eggs when gravel vaccing and levamisole can be harmful to some species of snails causing them to slow down I have found 24hr treatment repeated 3 times is effective at dealing with internal parasites in rare case you will have to do a fourth course

    Hikari sinking wafers repashy bottom scatcher hikari micro pellets frozen blood worms and brine shrimp
  19. Colu
    They are more than likely in your filter what I would do is leave your tank as it is and treat with Esha ndx once a week for 3 weeks if you see improvement then I would follow up with a fourth course that will take care of any of the parasite that hatch in-between treatments and doesn't require you to bin your plants

    I think what your feeding him is fine You could also add vitachem to his food and feed blood worms twice a week as they are higher in protein to help build him up

    It a difficult one after treating with kanaplex and jungal fungas clear fizz tabs haven't seen any significant improvement I would finish the course of maracyn2 if you see no improvement then i would treat with aqua-cipro 500mg it powerful antibiotic that used in a bath for 1hr every day for 5- 7 days it treats gram positive and gram negative bacterial infections
  22. Colu
    Nitrofurazone can damage plants I have used it and not notice any significant problems with my plants after using it
  23. Colu
    If you dosing with Esha ndx active ingredient is levamisole I would do three courses of treatment 1 week apart that the best way to treat with levamisole
  24. Colu
    Sterilising your filter will kill your benefial bacterial theirs no way around it if you have another tank were you can cycle some filter media to put back in your filter once everything is cleaned is the best option
  25. Colu
    With white patches on your red eyed tetra as well I would say looks like Columnaris I start treating with kanaplex and jungal fungas clear fizz tabs straight away @Beardedbillygoat1975
