    How long after a fish dies can you find gill flukes babies? I lost angelfish with gill flukes . Would I just empty tank and look for eggs on filter? I got a beginner microscope and wanted to practice. Do you know could I see at 100?

    • @GeraldBassleer
      @GeraldBassleer 2 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thanks and good question! Normal gill fuke babies appear after 7 to 10 days, when eggs are produced. Difficult to find eggs in filter but you can try. Add 100X magnifacation would be possible!

    • @GeraldBassleer
      @GeraldBassleer 11 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thanks for your comment! In many cases the bacterial is secondary...usually after weakened immune system, viral, parasitic infection, stress, bad feeding, etc....This doesn't exclude the risk that bacterial infection is the main killer of fish, especially in the gills! For Ramirezi from Asian, it is known that many suffer from Iridovirus, but only lab can confirm this!

    Is the activated carbon safe to use? I thought that it can cause hole n the head disease. I used to use it, and my fish were never sick. But I bought an angelfish pair and ended up with HITH. What do you think about the under gravel filter? I'm considering switching to that for angelfish with a sponge filter to seed it. I'm constantly fighting HITH with angelfish. You have helped me as a consultant also. Thanks for this important😊 information.

    • @GeraldBassleer
      @GeraldBassleer 26 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thanks for your interesting question. Activated carbon is good BUT not when used permanently since it can cause removal of essential ingredients although this is more specific a problem for marine fish (that drink water). I don't think that this carbon can cause HITH, since it is caused by a mix of factors, as I explain in my special video on this matter th-cam.com/video/Vo2gq72Tb-k/w-d-xo.html

No use to put in medication when the fish are stressed or has other bad influences that has an impact on there health (=immune system).

    People talk about this disease in particular with discus and oscar. But in fact it's everywhere. I diagnosed a small killifish with spironucleus based on stringy stool and microscope exam. It took 3 weeks for metronidazole to arrive in my country, and by then the fish was no longer eating at all and was floating upside down. On day 5 of the treatment, the fish miraculously recovered and began to swim, and a week later it returned completely normal. Parasitic infections (if treatable) are not as immediately lethal as bacterial, probably because the inflammatory response is not as severe.

    • @GeraldBassleer
      @GeraldBassleer 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for your info! Very helpfull! Yes, Spironucleus (used to be called Hexamita) also occurs in other fish....but mostly in the Cichlids. And you are 100% correct: fish can live long with it...untill secondary bacterial infections appear after damage of the microbiome and the gut line. Keep up the good diagnostic work!

Bloodworms can be good...depending on the source, the area of collection and the handling procedures during freezing, shipping or packing, etc. If you are not sure, try to feed not too much: this means avoiding risks because who can tell you if they are 'free from bacteria like Mycobacterium'?

    Hi! I have a julli Cory i bought like 1 week ago. He was just fine the first 4 days but 2 days ago he started to dart to the tank and breathes(single inhalation) and goes back to rhe bottom. He kind of gets carried away by the water and sometimes floats slowly if he stops swimming. Sometimes he swims normally. He is also panting but still eats. What do you think?

    • @GeraldBassleer
      @GeraldBassleer 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      This is difficult to give an accurate answer or diagnosis! It seems that fish was not in good shape OR that the fish doesn't do well with your current conditions of the aquarium! Normally Corydoras come to the surface to gasp for air! Maybe your feeding contaminated frozen or live food? Suggestion= Try feeding with a functional food that aids the fish (like our DR. BASSLEER BIOFISH FOOD FORTE) to build up health & strength.

    The statistics about how many batches of fish have the infection are not encouraging for a fishkeeper. Those levels suggest that you will almost certainly find it in your tank at some point, and it will wipe out most of your fish, and the chances of that are high. Does quarantine help in any way?

    • @GeraldBassleer
      @GeraldBassleer 3 หลายเดือนก่อน
