Pet Forum / Aquaria / Goldfish / November 2007Help! Sick fish (I think)
My Sarasa Comet, Hoshi, is possibly sick: Bulging eyes, constipation, and odd looking poop Water parameters: Ammonia: 0 ppm Nitrite: 1 ppm Nitrate: 20 ppm pH: 8 dKH: 5 dGH: 11 So far, my treatment has been a very substantial water change (effectively 90+ percent), Amquel plus to detox the nitrites, and Salt at 0.3% (1 Tbs per gallon). I'm wondering if we should bring the new fish out of quarantine early so I can move Hoshi to the hospital for tub to tub? http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g206/dburkhead/hoshi071125d.jpg http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g206/dburkhead/hoshi071125c.jpg http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g206/dburkhead/hoshi071125b.jpg http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g206/dburkhead/hoshi071125a.jpg  SignatureDavid L.

Updates Wednesdays Since posting that, partly in response to requests made elsewhere, I moved Hoshi to a 3.2 gal bucket (tonight, I'll move him to a 10 gal tub). With the three containers, I should be able to do a "round robin" kind of deal and finish the new fish's quarantine, while doing tub-to-tub on Hoshi. I also started him on the Medi-gold this morning. He still has good appetite so that augers well for his prospects. SignatureDavid L. Burkhead "Dum Vivimus Vivamus" mailto:dburkhead@sff.net "While we live, let us live."
