LaloJ Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 So I have a Sexlineata Rainbowfish with 3 or 4 white dots and some red markings in the mouth and near the tail, it looks like the fish wore lipstick, plus I see a couple of pretty thin threads coming out of its belly, you can imagine as if instead of excrement coming out that pair of very small and thin red threads comes out, the fish does not eat so I suspect internal parasites, I am thinking of medicating the hospital tank with Nitrofurazone for the red marks, do you have any other ideas for the other problems ? I have Paraguard for external parasites. Sorry but I don't have any image because the fish swim very fast, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 What your describing could be a bacteria infection and internal parasites such as camullanus what I would do is treat with fritz Expel p active ingredient is levamisole you will have to do 3 course of treatment a week apart I would also do a course of nitrofurazone in between treating with Expel p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaloJ Posted July 18, 2022 Author Share Posted July 18, 2022 Thank you for responding here, I think it will not be easy to get that medicine here, I'm in Mexico and I have not seen anything of that brand, is there any other option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 It you can't get levamisole try and get a product containing flubendazole 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
