• Urgent! Problem with the pig.

  • Kimberly2102

The situation is as follows: The fish was received a week ago from Crimea. The packaging was good, and there was no overheating. When transferred to new water (I did it as required), it looked fine, although its eyes were slightly cloudy. I transferred it at 12:00 and went to work. In the evening, the fish did not show up. I didn't see it for 2 days, then it appeared in the morning and disappeared again for 4 days. It did not show up for feeding. This morning, I saw it in a semi-reclined position near the front glass, caught it, and sent it to a quarantine tank in the sump. Now for the symptoms. The coloration is bright, there are no spots on the body or clumping of the fins. The eyes are normal. Breathing doesn't seem to be rapid. The feces are white and thread-like. It is leaning to one side. There are no aggressive neighbors - there was no one to beat it up. What could this be, and how can I try to save it? Or is the toilet inevitable?

I have the same story, but with Apogon. For about 5 days everything was fine, eating and swimming, but yesterday it started to tip over, and this morning there were no visible spots, it was active. I got Apogons from A, and I think this resembles fish poisoning with cyanide during fishing.

Isolate it separately in a volume of about 30 liters, install a mechanical filter and aeration. Tetracycline 50 mg per 30 liters of water, Chloramphenicol (levomycetin) for injections 13 mg per liter. Change about 50% of the water daily, adding a new dose of medication.
