FlCandy Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Gl keep us updated! Deep breath okay, you getting stressed out won't help your fish. Link to comment

tam Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Kent has a parasite treatment, maybe try that? Link to comment
primalurges Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 If my fish had that and I can catch him which looks like a challenge I would pick it off with tweezers assuming of course it doesnt hide in your fish when you go after it. I would assume if anything stays behind the fish will extract or absorb it. Link to comment
Dendroguy Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 do NOT FW dip, the stress can kill a fish that small it looks like a parasitic copepod,actually,Im surprised no one has pointed that out,I would get a skunk cleaner shrimp to deal with it Link to comment

Squared Posted January 4, 2012 Author Share Posted January 4, 2012 Ok no dip, I got some prazipro, is it possible to do a quick bath in that? Doesn't copper hurt scaleless fish? Link to comment
iball1804 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 More so than scaled fish, yea. Link to comment
Squared Posted January 4, 2012 Author Share Posted January 4, 2012 The parasite is no longer there...must have scraped it off while I was chasing him. But maybe it retracted into his head. Hopefully not Link to comment
