Who Gives A Fish Forums

It's not typical for a worm to still be inside the guppy after 2 days of treatment with Expel-P. However, if you can see the worm hanging out of the fish's vent and it's been there for 48 hours, it's likely dead or paralyzed.

To support your guppy's recovery, ensure you provide a nutritious diet ...

I just treated with Expel-P for camallanus worms on my guppy. Now I'm wondering, is it normal for a worm to still be inside the guppy after 2 days of treatment?

I've got this little gourami that's always dealing with fin rot. Recently, I moved her to a quarantine tank with some new baby fish I brought in from outside.
Unfortunately, things took a turn for the worse - it turned out one of the platies was bullying her pretty badly.
I removed the aggressive ...

I'd probably just scoop up some of the floaters with the springtails and add them to the terrarium as compost. As for catching them specifically, I'm not really sure - I'm considering trying to capture some to culture them in the terrarium, but I'm still figuring out the logistics of getting them ...

I tossed an elodea stem into my betta tank from outside and caught a snail dropping off and floating away a couple weeks ago, but haven't seen any since. I'm assuming the same thing's happening in my tank. I'm also blaming him for munching on the leaves off the stalk - guess he's a bit of a plant ...

I've seen fish going for snail eggs before, that might be what's happening here, or maybe Douglas is picking off the baby snails as they hatch.

I've worked with moss before, but not susswassertang specifically. One thing I've found is that moss tends to grow alongside algae, so make sure you're regularly cleaning out the algae to give the moss room to thrive. Also, don't forget to dose enough minerals and maintain a decent amount of biomass ...

I'd like to know a bit more about the situation - how long has the discoloration been visible on your pearl? Is she eating normally despite this issue? And do you think she was being bullied in the main tank - could that have triggered this?

It's possible that this is the start of a bacterial or ...
