Re: Emergency body slime, eye cloud, bloody eyes
Well everything is looking back to normal. the fish are lively again and loachy dancing. They are coming right up to me. The alpha is still showing a little darker color than normal but all visible signs of red dots or streaks are gone. No body slime or eye cloud is visible in the tank. The only fis...

Re: Emergency body slime, eye cloud, bloody eyes
the fish look much better today. the alpha striata that had the issues is now swimming around and hanging out with the other fish. all fish are eating. i think the bloody eyes were from fighting. one of the middle sized loaches was close to my alpha loach so she is swimming all over the tank looking...

Re: Emergency body slime, eye cloud, bloody eyes
no, the body slime went away after the treatment. that was why i treated with the fungus cure. it mentioned that it treats body slime, clamped fins and eye cloud. which were 3 things that 2 or 3 striatas were showing signs of. the strange thing is, the clowns were not showing signs of anything. they...

Re: Emergency body slime, eye cloud, bloody eyes

Re: Emergency body slime, eye cloud, bloody eyes
Observation: All loaches are eating even the alpha striata. The alpha striata is actually moving around and dancing a little. The alpha striata has no slime or eye cloud anymore. All of the striatas look much better than prior to this fungus treatment. No clamped fins, very little fin fray. Also all...
