Maybe, seems strange to develop a disease after being happy for so long??

[scottyhooton]

I think inmy case it may be over feeding

[choombies]

Not possible in my case I think you will vouch for that
Hungry buggers though hard to resist the urge to satisfy there want for food!!!!

[scottyhooton]

Hehe yeah

[scottyhooton]

Is it too soon for another water change??

[dazzabozza]

Should be done just before the next DMZ dose. Are they every 3 or 4 days?

How long since your filters have been cleaned?

[scottyhooton]

Filters cleaned a few weeks back , the ammo is at 0.00 now ... I don't want to clean the filters incase the dmz crashes them ? Yeah the dose rate is every 3-4 days so I will w/c tomorrow and dose again on Tuesday ?

[dazzabozza]

Yep good not to upset the bio-filters now that your dosing DMZ. If you do see your filters crash you can add another seeded filter to assist.

Your dose and WC interval sounds fine.

Ask Oli about rift lake salts and DMZ. If they're too high it may reduce the uptake of the meds.

[scottyhooton]

Ahh ok I do have a high amount of lake salts in there .... Hmmm , there is one Simmo still up in the corner by itself which doesn't seem to be improving , the rest are looking good , when I do the next w/c I will leave the salts out until I have finished dosing ?

[scottyhooton]

This one is the only one that seems to still be crook it has been hanging in the corner for two nights now , I'm wondering if I should put it down ? For the sake of the rest

[choombies]

I had one like that and it has just come good again after a few days of no feeding big water change.
Maybe quarantine it if your worried but I wouldnt be putting it down yet!

[scottyhooton]

Hmmm no qt I don't want to stress it further , I will just wait it out and see ,

[scottyhooton]
