Colu Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 (edited) If they have sunken belly and are losing weight it could be wasting disease you want to treat with levamisole active ingredient in Fritz expel p or fenbendazole once a week for 3 weeks Edited February 12, 2022 by Colu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quikv6 Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Great advice from Colu, as always. Don't be afraid to add some Levamisole (Expel-P) to the food itself, as well as the water column. To me, the food method has been more effective for wasting disease, if the fish are still eating. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janet Posted February 12, 2022 Author Share Posted February 12, 2022 Thank you so much I ordered the Meds from Aquarium Co-Op so I will do everything that Ya"ll are telling me to do thank you again P.s. so Just soak their food in in the meds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quikv6 Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 I soak the food and med powder for a bit together, bit I also add a bit of Seachem focus (its a powder that binds the med to the food), and Garlic guard, which is garlic extract to mask the medication. I wouldn't worry if you don't have either. I would dose the column as directed, and then just sprinkle a bit more of the med to soak w/food. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
