    Default gill's problem

    Today i found out one of my discus' gill worked unequally.
    One side of his gill just open a little bit, and his rate of breating increases.

    Before I found out his gill's problem, he stoped eating for a few days and throw up some bubbles and some half-digested food.
    also, he seems to find the hard surface and scratch...

    what might be the problem?and what medicine should i treat him?

    Gill worms. use PP. if you know how to use the product properly and the correct dosage. Otherwise it's cheap,safe and very effective.

    Henry is just learning.not sure pp is a good idea.
    Henry .post in the disease section. or read through it.
    maybe you should get some prazzi and treat the whole tank . then flukes and tapeworms will be looked after. new fish should be dewormed anyhow.
    herse where to get the prazzi. billman@citynet.net
    send paypal after you email him. he will send it right away.

    most discus carry flukes. they usually only get out of control if stressed.
