Hello everyone, this is my first post and it’s sad that it is for a sick discus.
First of all sorry for my English.
I took 4 wild alenquers and 3 non wild in bad shape from a friend and I am trying to save them.
They are going really better. After flagyl they start to eat. They eat live food- frozen and flakes. They still doesn’t like pellets. I used Epsom salt too and it seems that helped them a lot. They have gill flukes too I think. I made a treatment with Edna gdex and they breath better and doesn’t scratch or something anymore. The problem that remains is that one discus has an unusual behaviour. He swims normal and eats a lot but some times he stays like the photo I put. He stays a little like that and he comes back and moves again normal and eats. When he stays like that moves fast his fins and is like cough. He is getting dark only in this position after that his colours come back.
My ph is 4,5 ammonia 0 no2 0 no3 11-12
Fish are still in quarantine. 125ltr which I had with other fishes but I made it quarantine for them.
Anyone has any idea what he has?Attachment 131368
