Hi the other day I bought some quarter size angelfish and 1 of them has
a very severe equilibrium problem. I mean he can lie on the ground and every time he tries to swim he ends up crashing into things and turning upside down. He cannot really move. I have him a ten gal quarantine. I put him into a 1 quart container with the lid with 500 mg of human amoxicillin from a capsule within the tank for a 1 hour soak. It was the only antibiotic on hand. The only other stuff I have is quick cure. First what can cause this. I read in a book chilling can cause it. The Angelfish just came in the other day and the temperature outside here in Chicago is very cold (15 degrees F). Or is this a bacterial infections. I also put salt in the water. Main tank has 1 tsp/ 3 gallons. Quarenteen has 1tsp/gal. How else can I treat this? Water: Ammonia ~0 nitrite 0 Nitrate very low less than 10 pH 8.2 Temp 80 degrees |
