Thanks sir...your video is very helpful it teaches stuffs which no one says and that too in such a simplified manner 🙏🙏 from INDIA.

Thanks Gabe. You are doing a lot for the hobby.

Best discus guy ever

For home hobbyists, you can just use hydrogen peroxide. It is an oxidizer like PP but a bit safer and doesn't stain. I dose 5ml/10 gallons. You can kill fish if you dose too much.

Waiting for your new video, english version gabe..... make videos regarding fry attaching to albino discus. Thx for ur genuine vidos

Hi Gabriel.thank you for your information. I m from Vietnam

Hi Gabe! Incredible! Already did the math for a 75 gallon tank... thanks so much. Love your channel and your facility! Oh yeah, especially your fish!

Thanks gabe! You are amazing my friend!

Fascinating insight that’s crucial for the baby Discus survival rates. 👏👍

So according to the video footage..for 100 gallon = 1 gram of Potassium permanganate. For 150 gallon = 1.5 grams. For 50 gallons = 0.5 grams. And if we canister filter and not sump, then directly in the tank?. And how much hydrogen peroxide per 100 gallons of water. Your footage is always reliable and compact with knowledge based information. Thank you sir.

Excellent tutorial on the medicine! I enjoyed watching! Thank you for sharing! Gracias!

Lovely Gabe. Thanks mate

Thanks Gabe

Nice video posada!

Thank you GABRIEL POSADA at Jack Wattley for sharing this. I have been using this system and my Discus do not have 4 week syndrome anymore. It took forever to learn this step by step from friends and the little i found to read about it, hence why I appreciate hearing it from you. Hardly any info about this magical treatment out there especially neutralizing with hydrogen peroxide.. Very much appreciated

Thx mate.. u r an angel on this aquatic world..

Thank you so much Gabe. God bless.

your expertise is off the charts, do pls keep up the great work and knowledge cause no one i can find to share this on the net!!!! tk you Gabriel

It is awesome that you share your knowledge with us. Most places like yours keep all their knowledge, tips and tricks to themselves. Definitely a top quality place you have their Gabe and your videos are deeply appreciated!!!!

Thank you for these videos!!! It should be mentioned that potassium permanganate will also kill beneficial (nitrifying) bacteria.

Love the work you do. Such a humble and great personality

Thanks Gabe!! You're a straight up good dude.

Wow thanks sunshine.

Buenas noches, soy un principiante de discos y la verdad me parece muy buenos vídeos y bien explicados. El único inconveniente que no entiendo inglés y me cuesta mucho intuir lo que explicas. Tienes vídeos en Español y son buenísimos, por favor hazlos en los dos idiomas. Gracias y un saludo desde España

Crystal clear

I must thank you from bottom of my heart for sharing valuable knowledge.

Thank you so much Gabriel (Y)

Muchas gracias. Los disfrutaré mucho y aprenderé lo bonito del mundo del pez disco.

Here's a dosage. 2gm for 200 gallon = 10mg for gallon. Use in your own risk.

Excelente encontrar los vídeos en español e inglés

Thanks Gabe for detailed description. Like Your channel👍

Thanks Gabe !👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌

am really new to this hobby and your topic is really informative to us newbies. I actually had a flowerhorn but died few months ago due to fluke. I used liquid treatment like Prazi Gold but found no positive result from it and he got weaker and weaker as day went by and i feel so helpless about it. Ill gonna treat my whole tank including my canister filter with PP to kill those nasty parasites before I set it up again. Thank you Sir :)

Amazing

Awesome work you guys thank you for video...

Thank’s very much for that very important information! What ‘s the percentage of the peroxide? Thank’s once more, master!

Hi and thank you for your video from France :)

Estaría de lujo que hicieras los videos también en español...🙏🙏🙏saludos desde la ciudad de México....

Hola Gabriel, por favor realiza este video en español, es muy importante aprender este tratamiento para la comunidad disquera de habla hispana, muchas gracias.

Very interesting.

Tremendo!!!! Sabes más de medicina que yo!!!!

Very informative.

Thank you....would LOVE to retire in a hatchery!!!

When should i do first pp treatment for discus fry...

Great teacher @gabriel posada

hats off man

Hello everyone! Hope someone can help. I have a 90 liter aquarium with discus fry. How can I calculate, in European standards how much pp I should use and how much I have to add to the 1 liter bottle and how many ml I should add to the aquarium? Hope somebody can help me out. 1 fry is already dead.. 😭

That was good knowledge .

I like how you guys are not hiding trade secrets from everyone. Doesn’t PP kill the beneficial bacteria?

GREAT..........

Tk you for the wealth of info you are giving us, may I ask how we can do it at home and if I can use it to clean bio media, driftwood, etc. asking cause I'm setting 1k gal tank and I'm using same media from my old tank. Tks again

Very helpful video sir Thankyou

How to treat single 50 liter capacity tank with pottasium permaganate

Me encantaría este video en español

I had bunch breeding pairs n got the 30 day syndrome n all my babies died basically gave up kept happening great info

Love from India

while treating with potassium permanganate, does it kill the good bacteria in the sump ??

Thank you sir

Superb well explained informative 🔥👍🙏

Can you please explain if the beneficial bacteria that is in the sump also gets killed? Do you need to worry about cycling the tank again to prevent ammonia spike?

Where does the potassium permanganate go after mixing the hydrogen peroxide?

I had successfully got to the free swimmers stage and suddenly lost all of them in one night. Ammonia spike because I did the PP treatment and it killed my nitrogen cycle. Tough lesson but take the foam sponge filter and anything your using for biomedia out during the treatment.

What is the dosage calculator? Do you have any quantities for smaller tanks? Also do I need to remove any media from the external filtration or will it treat everything? I’ve got the fry in a 65 L aquarium, but over the last five days I’ve lost around 50 fry. I have potassium per magnate, but cannot find any dosage quantities.

Very good video, but the potassium permanganate don't kill your sump benefical bacteria?

Hola Gabriel, te hago una consulta, soy de argentina y aca manejamos litros no galones, segun lo que decis en el video, en 200 galones, que serian 760 litros aprox, pones 2g de PP, lo cual haciendo la cuenta, me da en 100 litros unos 0,26g de PP. Pero segun lo que agregaste en tus respuestas (Make a stock solution. 22 grams PP to 1 liter of water. Then use 1cc/5 gallons of water.) haciendo las cuentas aprox me da que en 100l de agua con esta solucion ingresaria 0,11g de PP. Como es el doble de PP te consulto para no hacer macanas!! desde ya muchas gracias por enseñarnos! saludos Ariel.

Gracias por el contenido, saludos desde España. Estaría de madre si lo recopilases todo en un libro. Te forrarías.

So if you use hydrogen peroxide do you still do water change or just leave hydrogen peroxide and same water in there ? Thx

I raised discus for years and gill flukes are a true menace.

Can methylene blue do the same?

Jack este vídeo en Español sería la ostia, vamos anímate que lo hablas muy bien 😀👍

Don Gabriel cuando usted, nos lo traduce en la lengua de Cervantes. Gracias y saludo

Gabe, thanks for sharing this information. My Flowerhorn fish is behaving very lethargic and keeps sitting at bottom or at top. He is not eating since last 10 days. I added about 1 mg of PP in a 1 gallon bucket and kept the fish in it for 20 minutes with good airation. The water was still purple but I removed the fish. Is it the right way? How often should I repeat this process and for how long? Please guide.

Hey There Gabriel. Quick Question if you don't mind.I am looking a pipe behind you in tank which has horizontal cuts and i assume return pipe and cuts are small to prevent fry getting into it. I never seen pipe like that before and was wondering if you do it by yourself or those pipes are ready like that. Can you be kind enough to let me know where can i buy pipe like that? Thanks a million and just discover your channel and subscribed. Great video and will watch rest quickly.

Hi Gabriel. How many ppm dose is this? Like 2? 🐟 Thanks a lot for answering 🙏🏻
