My goldfish sometimes come gasping for air at the top of the tank and scratching against the sand and decor i already used esha 2000 and stoped the scratching , now im going to try esha gdex cause they still gasp for air and i have tons of surface movement and many plants, any other tips ?
@@rebeccamandelos3164 It is generally not necessary to do a water change before or after using eSHa 2000, but again, if the water quality is bad, you can do it.
Hi guys, which products should I use for skin blisters and red spots on goldfish. Lot of red in the tailfin. Currently I am combining Esha 2000 and Exit with a salt bath. any advice would be greatly appreciated. Cheers!
Our apologies for not responding sooner. Could you please contact us through our website (eshalabs.com/contact) and send use some pictures please? Thank you.
We do not recommend combining eSHa gdex and EXIT at the same time, but we do have an elaborated quarantine procedure for new healthy looking fish where 2000, gdex and EXIT will be used in order: A quarantine procedure is for fish without disease symptoms, sick fish should first be treated for the disease they have. When using eSHa products with two-week quarantine, we recommend the following steps: 1. Use ½ a dose of eSHa 2000 and ½ a dose of EXIT for three days: this will eliminate microscopic protozoa, bacteria and fungi. 2. Then use eSHa-ndx and wait for 24 hours: this will kill nematodes (= roundworms). 3. After 24 hours of dosing eSHa -ndx, do a water change. 4. Then treat with eSHa gdex for three days. After day 5 of adding eSHa gdex, do a water change: this will kill flatworms. 5. After that, you can start with eSHa alx combined with eSHa OPTIMA: eSHa alx will kill parasitic crustaceans like Argulus and eSHa OPTIMA will give you optimal water conditions.
Good day. Do you expect to have Cestoda? You can use eSHa alx and eSHa gdex both on day 1 and then after the water change (day 5), add eSHa alx again, according to the amount of water you have added.
I keep Ranchu Goldfish, got a couple of products from you Guys. What kind of products do you recomend for a new fish in quarantine and in what order. Also are you al dutch haha …
Good day Leroy, you can find our recommended quarantine procedure on our website, which contains eSHa 2000 and EXIT, eSHa gdex, -ndx and alx as well: eshalabs.com/faq/. We are indeed based in the Netherlands, but we have a variety of people, cultures and languages within our company.
Hello! Normally you can just use the full dose with fry as well, but as a precaution we would recommend to keep an eye on them during treatment and do a water change in case you notice something unusual.
@@eSHaLabs Under a microscope I can see that as well as skin flukes there are some Costia. Will gdex also deal with Costia or should i try something like Hexamita after finishing a course of gdex? Sidenote - fry are doing well with GDEX and flashing symptoms have subsided and they are eating well again :)
Sorry for spamming your feed, just wanted to share it's the end of the second day of treatment and all fish are calmer, I don't see rubbing against plants, rocks or gravel. I have 6 guppies, 3 ramirezi, 23 neons,1 kuhli and 4 otocinclus in a 100l tank. You guys take care now.
@@eSHaLabs I can't figure out how to purchase for hole in the head. I've moved my angelfish out of a aquarium and put into a different tank and I want to get the treatment for the old tank that I am sure has the Parasites in it. I've tried to find a distributor here in USA ? Can I treat the old tank so I can use the tank again?
@@reneesnugent3358 Unfortunately we do not sell in the USA yet. You can always clean out the old aquarium and put your fish back in after they have been treated.
And thank you for adding a link to the calculator! Very nice.

Good idea to make this video. Thank you guys
You are very welcome! 😁
@@eSHaLabs I'd like to see you two doing FAQ about eSHa 2000!
@@Dobromir_Chodkowski It probably will be the next one 👌
I just used ESHa 2000 , yesterday. Should I continue using it without taking water out or need to change 25% of water?
Normally it is not necessary, but if you suffer from bad water quality you can do it.
@@eSHaLabs Thanks ♥️
After the treatment, do I have to change the water ?

Is it true you can combine the trio of 2000, Gdex and Exit for introducing new fish into a tank?

Hello. do snails carry this worms as well as crostations?
Yes, snails can also be an intermediate host, for example trematode worms.
Thank you
So is the treatment of Esha alx supposed to be on the 13th day of the Esha gdex treatment or both day 8 and 13?

I just received a delhezi bichir with what i believe is macrogyrodactylus ploypteri or something similar, would eSHa gdex treatment this ?
Yes! To combat Macrogyrodactylus, we recommend eSHa gdex, which is safe for invertebrates, plants and biofiltration.
@eSHaLabs treated it and the bichir is doing great 👍
@@Waterfish756 Great to hear 🥳
@@eSHaLabs yea, great product 👍
I have Ranchu Fry who have skin flukes (seen under a mag glass) should i half dose or full dose?
