Ok but the fact that you were so nervous trying to help these fish that you had to film a disclaimer is incredible in itself. Too many people stop caring about animals when they're aquatic and it makes so sad (and angry tbh) I just found your channel but I love it already.

Greatly appreciate taking the time to film and narrate these visits! Hopefully in the future you can get an assistant to help film to make things a little simpler for you. I would think anyone interested in becoming a fish veterinarian would jump at the chance to be your assistant.

Many of the visits are responding to emergencies and is difficult to schedule help. We have a student chapter of the World Aquatic Veterinary Medical Association at Murdoch University locally where I volunteer time with the students who have an interest in fish vetting.

My loach has a dime-sized ulcer on body near his tail. Yesterday I was advised to use melafix. I used it yesterday and today I saw the wound got a little deeper, so I called an aquarium shop and the gentleman recommended metronidazole. Not sure what is best. Any advice is appreciated.

Consider the distribution of the black patches. Could be normal colour change, or skin irritation from external parasites/trauma. Watch ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7c1H0cyBoVY.html

Update: I did notice the PH readings were off this am so I re-tested. In 14 years never had a PH problem as I am on well water. This am realized PH crash happened. Did the PP treatements or the Melafix drop the PH? The KH tested 40, PH 6.2, and GH 300 (very hard). Added baking soda, but still need to know if I should do another PP treatment or try to get antibiotics. Salt is about 1.5. Thank you for anyone that knows about this. Before the PP treatments I was loosing a large Koi per year to ulcers.

Hi Dr Rich! My axolotl has a bloated head I'm not sure what to do I feed him frozen blood worms but should I stop fweding him and for how long what other thing can I do? I had him for three years now he is about 6-7 inches long I'm worried. :(

Check his water temperature is below 22 degrees Celsius. There is poor prognosis once bloating occurs. Keep him cool and seek veterinary care immediately.

The highest the pH will get with calcium carbonate is around 8.2. If you don't want it to get that high, then have the materials in a removable mesh bag, or combine it with the use of "neutral buffers" available from your aquarium shop.
