Sharkbait3 310 Posted August 9, 2012 hi all ~~~ I would like some advice on what to feed the new goldie.............I only want to feed medicated flakes, while it is in QT.............to clean everything bad out............... Had some medicated flakes in the past, they REALLY helped with bacterial infections.................but can only find the HUGE containers, I know I will never use that much while the fish is in QT........ any thoughts??? thanks............. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dnalex 13,633 Posted August 9, 2012 I wouldn't do medicated flakes, because it doesn't really make a whole lot of sense to treat for bacterial infections, unless there is evidence of infection. Otherwise, I would just feed normal food and treat for external parasites prophylactically. If you have de-worming food, then that might be a possibility as well. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dnalex 13,633 Posted August 9, 2012 For the parasites... Jungle used to make an antiparasite medicated pellet, and that's a pretty good dewormer. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
