Hi,
I find the end of the gill of some discus turn black. Why is it? Is this some sympton of fluke. Are there any picture of fluke posted on web? One of my BD once was all blue but one day he bumped himself to the heater and some of his scales fell.There were never any wound but even today the 1cm large black dot could be easily seen. Is it normal?
Today I find my tank with some thread worm. (1cm long transparent) I try to kill them with formalin so I put 60 ml of formalin for 100 gallon tank. But most of them don't die, why? I know maybe they are harmless but they really grow in large numbers; it become kind of scary to look at. I did not do WC because I was in middle of hole-in-the-head treatment for one fish for 8 days. Ususally I do daily 50%WC. How could I kill those thread worms?
What is the precaution you use when you use formalin bath for discus? It could cause cancer if it touch the human skin. What about for the fish?
Could any one help me. Thanks a lot!
