Thank you for this amazing video! I'm learning about fish parasites right now and this is a great example for me to see how they are treated in a real-life case and the way to explain a treatment plan clearly to a client.
how could I treat a pond with apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata) to ensure there is no rat lungworm. I don't mind the snails, just worried it could infect people. We have Tilapia and red tilapia in a concrete swimming pond with a thin coat of painted epoxy.
Good video but I have crayfish in my pond also alot of fly life and worried I might kill everything it's roughly a 20000lt pond with some koi and grass carp , orf , goldfish and a tench . What would u recommend I use to kill the lice
Unfortunately, the medications that are effective against lice also impact on your aquatic fly life. I think though, it's worthwhile eradicating the lice, and then as time passes, the fly life will return.
@@thefishdoctor8746 thank you for your help and yes I agree with you . At the end of the day it's the fish that are suffering and through nobody elses fault but my own . I introduced weed from a lake stocked with rainbow trout . Thanks again
Thank you so much! I saw a fish louse on one of my goldfish pretty early, and I used tweezers to pull it off. I also bought some new fish, and one of them had a fish louse as well, but I was able to pull it off. I was pretty confused as to what the parasite was, and now that I watched this video, I now have more insight on fish lice. Thank you again!
If you get a normal test strip kit it'll have a chart to compare it to. I just googled what was normal for each one. Some fish have slightly different water parameter needs, so you might want to Google each fish's needs before you get them so you Don't have fish living together that need different water parameters. I hope I helped. :) I'm still pretty new to this too but that's just what I've found useful.
Fish Doctor . Can you tell if all koi have some type of bacteria ? Also I checked my koi looks like I may have gill flukes but I only saw 2 bacteria on the microscope I did swab from one end to the other . Thanks
Formalin does not affect the biofilter at therapeutic doses. In fact, the biofilter bacteria may break down and inactivate Formalin, using it as a carbon source.
my goldfishes are infected with fish lice and I have used paraclear medicine and changed water can u suggest me further management to eradicate fish lice from my community tank
why do gold fish tails curled ,at the time when i bought they are straigt after some days they are getting curled what could be the exact cause and how to recover them to normal
Hello Mr Richmond, what is the main cause of fish ulcers? I've had problems since autumn, lost a few fish!! Currently treating with lernex, and swabbing with tamodine and sealing with propolis wound seal.. My water parameters are good, thank you
I have a parasite or worm larvae that I cannot identify. Tiny white bugs that either molt into worms or I have worms too. They have infected my fish and turtles. I have been dry docking my turtles and these things don’t die! They are living in between the crevices and under their carapace and today I found three of them with bruised and swollen jaw lines and as I squeeze the area, the worms and tiny white bugs are there under the skin!!!! I have treated for anchor worms with Dylox and Proform LA with no impact. Salt did not do anything and I’m currently treating with metronidazole for possible internal worms because I cannot figure out where these things are coming from!!! I have recently seen some gnat type flies on the top of the water in the one tank I haven’t torn down! Could these be some type of fly larvae??? What small fly would have larvae that would bury themselves under the skin???? I have gone to two different vets and have wasted hundreds of dollars trying to identify what this is so I can treat it!!! PLEASE HELP!!! I am SO DESPERATE for help!!! I have photos and videos I can share. Please let me know if you can help!!!
My platy fish pond is infected by anchor worm, i noticed something was growing on them for 3 weeks and only now that i realized there were these parasites attacking my fish. I caught my infected platies and removed the parasites manually, before they lay egg and die again. Im pretty sure that there are eggs scattered in my small pond :((( help me! I did 50% water change today, so i could atleast reduce the number of eggs these annoying crustacean. I don't want to use dangerous medication that could kill my pretty ramshorn. I also notice that some of these worm are dead but still attached to the fish, is this common? Does small amount of salt help kill the young parasites?
If you Don't want to use chemicals the only other way would be to use tweezers and manually remove them. I think using medication is fine as long as you do lots of research before hand. Hope I helped:)
Are the strains of Dactylogyridae and Gyrodactylidae that infect goldfish and koi also infectious to other species that are not cyprinids (carp)? For example will flukes from a goldfish infect live bearers or tetras and vice versa?
Hi hi just looked at this video an say to my self need to know more about fish health. So i have a question Is it ok to treat your fishes even if you dont see they are looking sick or an parasite
To get a better idea of your problem, you may wish to post with pictures or videos in our VISITOR post section on our new Facebook page - tinyurl.com/thefishdoctor-facebook

hi i have a black colored fish which have skin . today i was watching my fish carefully then i noticed one of my fish is affected with white colored insects which is walking on his body . please tell me how to cure it . due to that insect my fish is also not eating for one week . hope you will reply very soon thank you
Do the fishes die from these parasites, I just recognize one parasite at one of my gold fishies and I didn’t like it, I went right away to a fish store a got a treatment but I’m not sure what to do, should I take it of the body of the fish before I start the treatment or It will go away itself when I start the treatment, and does that effect the other fishes too ?! Pleas help me because I want to start the treatment ASAP
Lice graze on amd damage fish skin, leaving the sores prone to secondary infections like bacterial diseases. Yes to treat, lice as explained in our video. but If there is one kind of parasite, there may be others. Best to examine for the presence of other possibilities before formulating a treatment plan.
I'm so stressed right now my aunt bought an aquarium with two kois and gold fish they are my pets now I'm so attach with them... I'm a newbie i watch youtube vids about my pets and it makes me mad cuz my one koi don't have gills😢😢😢 idk what to do poor baby😢

I have anchor worms in my 55 gallon freshwater tank. Also on my fish, I bought treatment that seems to have a small effect on the fish themselves. Any ideas how to get rid of them completely?
I am so exhausted and sad. I have been battling some type of parasite that keeps killing my fish. I have bought so many different products and nothing is fixing the problem as I do not know what I am treating. I have an excellent compound microscope and have excellent photos and videos of what is lurking in my tank but no one will help me identify what I am seeing. Is there anyone out there that can help?
You can share the videos or photos, I might be able to help you identify them to family and /or genus level hopefully. If I do not know, I'll also say.
Not a good treatment for inside an aquarium or pond as it'll kill your beneficial bacteria and stain everything blue, it'll also kill plants. You can give fish a bath in it, but that won't kill anything in the pond.
Hi doc i hope you respond quickly i have a small koi about 3 inches it floating on its side the rest of fishes appear to be fine uts still breathing but very little movement help plz
Hi, nice video, I have a pond that is continuously feeded by natural water, so we started to see this unfriendly bugs (Argulus foliaceus)!, we continuously remove them manually from our koi fish, but it is a 15.000 litters pond, with around 70 koi fish in all sizes. Our weather is cold always, around 18-19c water temperature all day. Do you know if for example...Angel Fish can help us to fight them naturally? what we can do if not? Salt will help? Thanks
Very good question. A couple of my fish keeper clients have described a loose symbiotic relationship (similar to the marine cleaner wrasses), between their small pond fish (e.g. rosy barb) and their koi, where the small fish pick of parasites from the large koi. These are observational anecdotes for the moment, and I've not come across scientific literature to back it up. I don't see why it shouldn't work, provided the parasites are easily visible and that the koi learn to stay still enough for the small fish to pick off the parasites. Lump suckers are used when salmon farming in some northern hemisphere farms. In the meantime, my advice is to find a veterinarian who can treat your pondfish, because they're real nasty bugs when numbers get out of hand.
Dear Dr Loh, I can get Lufenuron 50g/l (syngenta MATCH 050 EC) but would appreciate to hear how to treat 100l fish tank with Leporacanthicus triactis (L91 pleco) against Argulus. Many thanks.
Tiger Barb i can only advise on the products I supply because I've tried and tested them to be safe and effective. I've had reports by people who have try different forms available and have killed fish as a result.
Thank you very much for a quick response. Unfortunately, I cannot find here vets specialized for fish care or appropriate medicine. Can I use ivermectin, salt bath or...(and what proportion/quantity)? I have been removing the lice for over a month and a half now and it is an endless process without the right medicine I guess. I have to kill the eggs and young somehow since I can not do that with tweezers. Thanks one more time!
HI SIR CAN YOU MAKE A VIDEO ABOUT COLUMNARIS FOR GUPPY ETC TOO? THIS SICKNESS IS QUITE DEADLY NOW WILL BE NICE IF YOU CAN MAKE ONE VIDEO ABOUT THAT THANK
Lendon Jardinel you can use many antibiotics in koi, but the question is, what antibiotic works for the bacteria you're trying to treat (if in fact it is a bacterial problem). Best to get a diagnosis, and if it is bacterial, then get a culture and antibiotic sensitivity profile prior to using antibiotics.
This is not what a human doctor would do! They would guess about the probable cause and give you a broad spectrum antibiotic if bacteria is suspected. Otherwise, by the time you do all that stuff you recommend, the fish will probably be dead or the disease so advanced that the proper treatment you isolated won’t work anyway.
I hope someone sees my coment and replies.. I have a comet goldfish and a translucent goldfish, this lice was on the second fish since I bought it. For 10 days, I quarantined this second fish, but today I moved her to the big aquarium with the other fish. After moving her, this lice removed itself from the fish and started swimming on its own (when I noticed, I removed it from the tank). My questions are: 1/Is it possible that the lice had breeded in the tank water? 2/ what is the cause for their existence in the tank? 3/ how to kill it without harming my fish? 4/ and what kind of fish is compatible with my two comets? Thank you.
Thats funny you say that about the bird. I was watching this video with my conure next to me and he would not SHUT UP because he was calling to the bird on the video. So for me it was extra annoying because My birds was screaming too.

If you keep a cockatiel, you can instantly recognize the bird sound.

Priviledged fuck not appreciating nature, also really? You can't focus cuz of one bird?

Treat for worms and other internal parasites.
Use 20 % diluted hydrogen peroxide on the infected area . Method : take a ear cotton bud , put hydrogen peroxide on it and rub it on the infected part

suchita gadekar, you'll need to get diagnostics done by your local fish vet.
watch also, th-cam.com/video/rZlySKJkULg/w-d-xo.html
unfortunately there no fish vet in my locality
It's most likely an internal parasite, or wasting disease. Medicated food should help, Metro-Med is a great medication.
suchita gadekar how did it all turn out? Sounded like possibly internal parasites.
Plz doctor tell me the medicine for this
