I am very sorry to here this. I would maybe order them if you have not done that yet. Big box store(especially guppies)fish are not usually very healthy. But you never know. Again I am sorry. 🙁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will take it will take three courses of treatment so you would treat week 1 week 2 week 3 following @oddduck dosing that I posted fenbendazole can work when other anti-parasitic medication haven't so I think it has a good chance of curing your fish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supermassive Posted August 1 Author Share Posted August 1 Another female died. I noticed she had a tiny protuberance on her side. It was black in the center and white around it. Kind of looked like a tiny pimple except it was black or very dark in the center. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colu Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 You can get black cyst with some type of nematode worms on the side of your fish I can't say for sure that's the cause in this case 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supermassive Posted August 23 Author Share Posted August 23 @Colu I haven't medicated them anymore but they seem to be doing okay. The 3 survivors are all pretty fat now and eating well and their behavior seems normal. My concern now is are they still full of parasites and if I breed them and sell them are they going to get sick a lot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they still have parasite you will notice weight loss bloating and lose of appetite over the next couple of weeks with out further treatment I would just monitor for next month if there still behaving normally and don't suffer weight loss or lose of appetite or white stringy poop then I would say your fine to breed from them 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
