I am really going crazy , I have had my babies for almost 5 years and al of a sudden I started seeing the gold color fading and scales falling off sunken in behind the head and a sunken belly stringy white poo. I had treated with salt and bacteria and fungi and still I have lost 3 fish in the past 2 months. I'm going to have to treat my whole tank. My 2 koi and 2 African featherfins seem fine but my sarrasas are dieing. Thank you for your videos I was so lost and you again saved the swimming Angels. These fish are the best for mental health and I bring people that I know need help and have them just sit in front of my tank and watch the fish . My fish LOVE attention and love when people are watching them. Its like they put on a show for whoever is in front of the tank. I have sat in a chair everyday and hand fed them for over 4 years and they are truly part of the family and in our dining room when we eat they eat at the same time .

Just want to say how much I value what you said about we already know where we are, now let's figure out how to fix it. I have spent countless hours watching videos that end up being full of just fluff, and often it ends up being not related to the topic I'm intending to watch, so it's extra wasted time. Most of the big RU-vidrs I watch are pretty good for it, but thanks for just spitting out the facts here

@makiarn777 3 года назад

I agree. I’ve been wasting money on metroplex and what I mean by that is I’m apparently dosing the wrong way. I thought you put the number scoops of medicine per gallons of the tank. And I guess that’s if you are dosing the WATER! 🤦🏽‍♀️ I was wasting my focus and garlic guard as well. Damn damn damn! No wonder my fish wouldn’t eat that bitter crap! As many scoops of medicine I put they probably can still taste it. Got a few that won’t eat but maybe if I mix it right I can still save them. Glad I came across your video! Thanks for the post!

@DavidMoore-tf8mo 2 года назад

Kev, Thank you for having the best “how to” videos on aquarium and fish keeping. You are my go to guy for all fish and aquarium tips, tricks and treatments. I haven’t owned fish in 30 plus years or so but now my 5 year old daughter Ava had a fascination with them and so doing things like I do, we went from a single goldfish she won at the fair to a 5 gallon, then 10 gallon and now a 75 gallon fresh water tank. 🤦! Anyways, Dude, you are down to earth, easy to follow and direct and to the point which I appreciate! Our Cichlids are 2- blood parrots and named ( Mustard and Mayonnaise). and 2- Tiger Oscars are (Jelly and Peanut Butter). 😎 Too cute coming from a 5 year old man! Thank you Kev and keep these videos coming! Now I get to treat internal parasites in one of our Oscars (Jelly). He has the long white dangling poop and is now staying at the bottom of the tank and almost laying sideways at times. Wish us luck!

Right now the only sign i see of internal parasites is stringy poop and i’ve seen Molly, Paullie and Mr. Pac-Man poop like that. They all still have a very good appetite thankfully. I’m going to take this as an indicator to treat all my fishies and i’m so thankful for your informative video that shows where to begin 😭 i’d be very clueless otherwise.

@KaveManAquatics 2 года назад

My pleasure! If they only have the stringy poop but are still eating good, and no sunken belly, I wouldnt medicate. They could just be adjusting to the food you're feeding. Remember the white stringy poop is just 1 of a few signs....Hold of on the meds for now as long as they're still eating well.

@@KaveManAquatics thank you so much!! i will definitely keep a look out for the other signs and take action if i see any other signs. we just got through fighting Ick a couple of weeks ago and i didn’t want to medicate them so soon after that. thankfully all of them recovered from ick and my tank has been ick free for a few weeks now ☺️ also, thank you for taking the time to reply to my comment

Hi Kev, "Lets Go". 😄😄. I'm a subscriber. I love your videos because they are easy to follow and understand. They are very informative as well. I have 2 Tetra fish that are not eating and I don't see any long white stringy poop coming from them. There are no signs of Ick either. The pink one is very active but the blue one spends a lot of time at the bottom of the tank hiding. The blue one has also become very pale in color with sunken belly. He will swim around at times. So I saw one of your videos on why your fish have stopped eating. You said to change the brand of food, I did to a more vitamin riched food with smaller pellets. I also ordered Seachem Metroplex and Seachem Focus. As for the Seachem Garlic Guard do you recommend using fresh garlic juice?? Also saw another of your videos saying that I can treat the whole tank, I only have those 2 fish anyway for now. You also mentioned Epsom Salt mixture can be added to tank as well with these above named products. How often do I do water changes if any and for how many days do I treat???

New sub! I’ve been doing it all wrong! I’m a nurse not a 👩‍🔬 chemist! Lol! I think 🤔 it will work now I know the correct way to use it! Thank you so much!

@KaveManAquatics 3 года назад

Lol, that’s ok, Being a nurse will be beneficial to your fish one way or another, even if it’s just caring for them! This method should help them ingest the meds. If you have a guy that just won’t eat at all anymore he may be too far gone. At that point remove him into a hospital tank and treat the water in that whole tank....and cross your fingers 🤞

Hey Kev, you’re the go to man! You’ve got a video for every single thing I’m experiencing as a noob. When you say the quarantine combo (paraguard/metroplex) do I go half and half on each medication or full on each per serving?

@KaveManAquatics Год назад

Glad to hear you're finding the channel helpful! 😊 Go full dose of each for at least the first week!

@stevenwhite3794 4 года назад

I use this same mix except I use pure Metronidazole instead of Metroplex. Metroplex takes way too long. Also I talked to Seachem and they said that new test have shown that a 1:1 ratio of Metroplex and Focus is sufficient. They are starting to put this mixture ratio on the newer bottles. The pure Metronidazole takes only about 3 to 5 days depending on the severity of the parasites. Metroplex can take up to 3 weeks. So to everyone I would suggest pure Metronidazole as it is way more effective and is cheaper than the Metroplex.

@KaveManAquatics 4 года назад

Thanks for that info. The focus does tend to disappear quickly with the 5-1 ratio. I will be calling Seachem as well to confirm. Straight metronidazole can be hard to get for some viewers while metroplex is easily accessible.

You can just smash up a bunch of garlic nocely then put it all in a soft paper towel and squeeze until enough garlic juice comes out then you can dip your fish food or medication in it until its properly soaked and take it out let it dry for a little

@KaveManAquatics 3 года назад

Thanks for the info, Question for you. How often should I be doing water changes while doing this? I have subscribed to your site as well!

@KaveManAquatics 3 года назад

Thanks for subscribing!! This method is medicating the food, so just stick to your normal water change schedule. It wont have any effect since the fish are actually eating the meds.
