Regular Member Captain Findus Goldfish Posted July 19, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted July 19, 2010 20 gallon QT tank - Ammonia - 0 - Nitrites - 0 - Nitrates - 0 - pH - 8.4 - tap pH - 7 (water is aged until tap water equals tank water) - temp - 24C Blondie has been on 0.3% salt for a week now. She has also had her first (out of 4) round of Prazi. Just realized that was USLESS as the stupid Eheim HOB I got for the Qts has CARBON AS A FILTER CARTRIDGE - WHY would they do that. PFFFFF.... So I removed it yesterday and also a funky green cartridge - which didn't seem 'normal' either. So now I just have my own sponge in there. Anyways. Have to restart Prazi from 0 now... Symptoms: - 2 white spots on her tail - at first I thought it could be ich - but they haven't moved in one week - so I am now thinking it could just be her coloring (she is tiny so it is hard to see them - they are def not fungus). Can I rule out ich? - one fin is shredded a bit (with the white type of line that comes to 'sensitive' fins). The tank it TOTALLY bare except a smooth pot - so 'accidents' are not an option. - I often find her just resting near the surface - she will do this most of the day unless I am there - then she is all excited and begging for food. - her tail fin is also starting to look a bit shredded - the white thin 'skin' has formed... - she still also sometimes 'darts' around. which has got me thinking - flukes. So assuming the Prazi was pointless - can I stop worrying and assume this is caused by Flukes? It also causes shredding right? Her 'twin' - in a separate QT is doing fabulous... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
