Jeff99 31 Posted July 30, 2013 Hi guys. I don't know it is blood streaks or what, but yesterday my ryukin has a thick blood vein in the tail, but today the thick blood vein in the tail has gone... But know there is some thick blood vein in his Pelvic fins. This is like a bloody pelvic fins. The ryukin colour is white but I never see this before accept for this one. Also, when I come to the tank my ryukin is like swimming scampered all over the tank after a few second. I cannot put the water parameters know since I don't have one and I will go to the LFS to check it ASAP! And some pic will come. I also already add 0,1% of salt to the tank. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
number20121 2,663 Posted July 30, 2013 Hi, can you tell us some of the other info until you have the parameters? How many gallons is the tank, how many fish? How much of the water do you change, and how often? What filtration do you have? Water temperature? It sounds to me like it could be an irritation caused by a water quality issue, but we can not say for sure until we have all the info required. Save some of the tank water to bring it to your LFS for testing, and then do a big water change. Adding salt is often beneficial, but when you do not know the water parameters (salt can make ammonia more toxic), it is best to change the water. With that, you are usually on the safe side and often that is all that is needed 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GoldenSpoiledRotten 6,786 Posted July 30, 2013 Please fill this out while you wait for the parameters. Other Required Info: * Brand of test-kit used and whether strips or drops? * Water temperature? * Tank size (how many gals.) and how long has it been running? * What is the name and "size of the filter"(s)? * How often do you change the water and how much? * How many days ago was the last water change and how much did you change? * How many fish in the tank and their size? * What kind of water additives or conditioners? * What do you feed your fish and how often? * Any new fish added to the tank? * Any medications added to the tank? * List entire medication/treatment history for fish and tank. Please include salt, Prazi, PP, etc and the approximate time and duration of treatment. * Any unusual findings on the fish such as "grains of salt," bloody streaks, frayed fins or fungus? * Any unusual behavior like staying at the bottom, not eating, etc.? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeff99 31 Posted July 31, 2013 Know my ryukin has no more blood veins, maybe because I gave him/her. 0,1%salt and I check the parameters the causing of this is the nitrate. it is 20ppm because my last water change is only 25% I'm usually take my nitrate <10ppm .so if there is some problem that I get, I'll tell u guys sorry for making you guys disturb. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
