Fish Medication
All-in-one medication betta fish?
My betta fish may have a bacterial or fungal infection – I'm not sure. Is there a All-in-a drug that could treat the "fish and what Hikari Revive" product? Here are the ingredients of the "Hikari product Revive: water, neomycin sulfate (<10%), methylene blue (<0.5%), property-polymer mixture, buffers, EDTA, malachite green chloride (<0.01%) cyanocobalamin and electrolytes. Copperhead – Thanks for your response and understanding, but my problem seems to be what you described. If we observe an earlier post I made about the apparent condition of the fish: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/; _ylc = X3oDMTE1aThkdWZ2BF9TAzIxMTU1MDAxMTgEc2VjA2Fuc19ub3QEc2xrA2Fuc21vcmU, "_ylv = 3?

It sounds as if you're debating between a fungus and columnaris body. Binox (nitrofurazone) deal with these. There are ways to distinguish – is more Columnaris and tangled filaments are shorter and cross each other. The edge of the infection is generally circular http://www.fishjunkies.com/images/Columnaris2.jpg In the mushroom body, the filaments are longer and straight, and the infection has a more irregular profile: http://www.uib.no/bot/kurs/BB220/Algae/Figures/fish.jpg addition, The fungus rarely attacks a healthy body fish. Or the fish should have an open wound (of fighting, the injury of an object in the tank) or kept in inadequate conditions (poor water quality, temperature too cold – these are tropical and need water temperatures of 76-86oF). The conditions that caused the fungus also attacks aong be addressed to the processing of fish. Be sure to do a good cleaning / gravel vacuum and change water and to remove carbon from your filter before add medication. ALSO: Is this precisely what seems to be an "obstruction" of the scales? What kind of conditions you have for your betta? They do best if they have a tank of about 2.5 gallons or more with a heater (they are a Tropical Fish and water must be 76-86oF). They also benefit from the filtration smooth. In a configuration as desired, change about 25% of water each week. If you keep it in a container, which is probably not hot enough – you can check the water temperature if you have a thermometer. The temperature will also put in food as they need heat to digest, and the color is more opaque. Furthermore, if in a container, you must do 100% water changes 2-3 times a week to prevent poor water quality. The smaller the plate, the changes that would necessary to maintain the ammonia in their construction waste.

ArticleID = 717 If you think you're doing everything we should be, if the betta has what appears as a white powder in it when you look closely. Under a powerful flashlight, the spots appear golden or rust-colored instead of white. If that fits the description of its fish, which is velvet, a parasite. Increase water temperature, and add a medication containing malachite green and formalin, as directed. You should also keep the lights on the tank off, and make sure no direct sunlight reaches the tank. This parasite is able to survive by photosynthesis. This is a parasite resistant and can act quickly. My last fight with him took 4 weeks to eradicate completely (3 weeks to see spots, plus an additional week to ensure that all parasites in the water were killed – If treatment is stopped too soon, the fish can become infected. This is a picture of a betta with velvet so you can get an idea of the size of the dots: And more http://www.flippersandfins.net/Images/VelvetEarly.jpg treatment: http://www.skepticalaquarist.com/docs/health/othprotist.shtml
