    I use a automatic water change system. Upped it to around 60-70% no difference noted. the two with spots are both males that are in breeding pairs. (might of been war wounds) so I set up a breeding tank and separated the couples. second tank still with a auto change at 60% with weekly wipe down and daily cleaning. fyi(Both Pairs are spawning constantly) so its been a few weeks now. Still minor spots and fin notches, what have you. Now one of my others is darkening and clamping not eating. and all the discus are flicking and rubbing.. so i hit em with some wormer plus yesterday. Spots are gone now and the clamped guy is lightening up. soo maybe it was hex or who knows. I do feed Hikira blood worms. AAAANY WHo. I used the last of my de wormer and now I cant find anymore online or that would ship to Canada and I'm feeling I should probably run a second dose in 4 days. Thoughts?

    How do you or how can you judge a complete 60% WC, with an automatic system. Please explain? To me it would take 100's of gallons of water to get 60% clean water. Because "clean" water and "depleted" water are being removed at the same time. So some of the water that goes in that same day some is removed again.
