I made a freshwater bath - they fell off. But there could also be others on a different, darker fish, where these parasites are not visible.

Guys, has no one encountered this? I found this crap on the hipthos. Since no one has any thoughts, I will bathe it too.

Randy

According to the description, this is "black oodinium," "black cryptocarionosis." I haven't encountered it, as I either take fish that are already established or quarantine them for 14 days (I've learned my lesson about rushing). It's possible to catch all the fish and have a place to treat them, while the reef can be left without fish. Is there a container where they can be treated for a couple of weeks?

There is a 150-liter aquarium. Can it be set up as a quarantine tank? What equipment is needed for this? List of fish: zebrasoma, hipatus, 2 clownfish, 5 cardinal tetras, and 1 helman that is just starting to eat.

Jose

OK, I just need to think about what to make the cover from... There are flat, smooth, and completely non-porous stones. Maybe from them? I understand that a foam board is not needed?

Wendy

I don't need a pen, I have burnt ceramics for covering, not painted, regular tubes, plastic tubes with a diameter of 50, gray, glued in 2-3 layers to the tile for weight.

Steven757

What kind of water should be taken freshly prepared?

Erica752

What if it's the other way around: put the corals in the quarantine tank (I have few of them) and leave the fish and treat them with medication? ... although, probably the point is still to move the fish to the quarantine tank... I will start preparing...

Joshua8425

There is no reef.

Jessica6754

And the sand, and all the living things in it? The reef remains without fish; it will heal itself in two or three weeks under UV, while in the hospital, the fish can be treated during this time, not forgetting to remove uneaten food and water from the pot, and to top up from the reef.

Crystal4879

Will the strays not end up in quarantine this way?

Alyssa1438

And where will you treat the fish? It seems we don't understand each other.

Courtney4094

in the quarantine tank. I just didn't understand this moment: did I understand that I need to top up the quarantine tank from the display?

Tammy2040

Quarantine is a treatment book; you put it in quarantine, observe it, discover the disease, and treat it. If there is no desire, then just set one quarantine, but you can have a treatment book for each fish separately. Everything is possible if there is a desire.

Joseph9057

I put a group of Lisemat and gobies. They seem to be cleaning, but apparently they are not coping. I will probably have to put everyone in quarantine and treat them.

Tonya

The treatment for crypt is similar, and the life cycle of the parasites is also comparable. The main thing is to remove the fish from the main aquarium to deprive the parasitic worms of their host. By the way, do you know how to treat crypt?

Chelsea567

I plan to treat with Praziquantel. Take one fish out of the display - a bucket with water and the medication - then quarantine (for two weeks?). Or transfer all of them to the quarantine and add the medication there. I don't know what's better... What do you think? Savchuk and Ov recommend small green or formalin. Maybe Praziquantel wasn't available five years ago? I don't know what's better, maybe you can advise?

Joseph9057

Damn... the hipa crypto has spread again. It was like this two weeks ago, but it went away on its own. White spots have also appeared on Helman's fins.

Pamela

Yes, it's a pity! Off-topic, but measures should have been taken at least on April 1-2; why drag it out, hoping for the best? It won't just resolve itself, isn't it obvious? Everything was already clear; you just needed to take action, that is, to set up treatment and start healing.

Ronald5720

I disagree. The crypt has passed on Hipatus, as I understand it, this happens to them. To combat Paravortex (tubularians), I introduced a school of lisma and goby - unfortunately, it didn't help completely. I'm hesitant to transfer to the quarantine tank because many say it's additional stress for the fish. Moreover, there are questions related to the lack of experience, for example: but there are no tips... So I'm dragging the cat by the painted eggs... The aquarium for treatment has been set up with seawater from a healthy aquarium for about 10 days now. I just need to decide on the medication and move the fish.

Ryan7682

there were none on others.

Whitney

Read post 20 carefully once again. I remind you that all fish need to be treated at the same time, not individually, and the aquarium should be completely fishless. Treating them one by one will not help; you should understand that placing a recovered fish, for example, with sick ones is not possible, as it will get infected again and become ill.

Jason9952

The quarantine facility is your option for a deeply layered defense. At any moment, and the sea can provide as many of those moments as it wants, there it is, at hand, well-equipped and ready for use; any task related to treatment and temporary holding can be solved effortlessly with its help. I still wouldn't advise eliminating it. Because from my own experience, what seems to be finished in the sea often turns out to be just the beginning...

Jason9952

Cysts are found in your aquarium during water changes, and the wanderers are looking for a victim. After the maturation cycle, cysts appear again. As long as you do not eliminate the wanderers, the cycle will repeat. There are already treatments for the reef that do not harm corals and invertebrates. If you are interested, leave your phone number in a private message.

A Goby Tor was purchased for treatment, and the population of Lisma Amboensis was increased. Everything went well in a week and did not return. Ten months have passed. The doctor advised, and I figured out the Lisma on my own. That's it... Maybe it will help someone.
