Administrators Zenzo Posted October 26, 2021 Administrators Share Posted October 26, 2021 I am sorry to see that your eel is not doing well. Make sure that you test the water to ensure that it isn't something like an ammonia burn. I would suggest keeping the water quality optimal, with frequent water changes, and continue with the Marcyn treatment for a week or so to see if there is an improvement. Also, maybe check to make sure that the eel is not trying to hide by the heater, where it could get burned. Maybe add a PVC cave or something.

Mrjosh Posted October 26, 2021 Author Share Posted October 26, 2021 Thank you Zenzo. There was a Chinese algae eater that caused the original injury. Was getting sucked on by the CAE. I will continue to do frequent water changes and treat with Marcyn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 I would also add a dose of ick x to cover against fungal infection it's safe to use with scaleless fish if maracyn doesn't do the trick I would treat with kanaplex it a more broad spectrum antibiotic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
