Thank you for making this! Was researching it a bit further and I didn't realize how in depth this video went!!

I had to use a medication this week that I’d never used before. Choosing the right one can be difficult. I like this series you’re doing

Another good video great info. I appreciate you sharing.

Interesting. I’ve never heard of this stuff before. Thanks for the info man! And the sub 🙏🙏

Great video thanks. I'm treating a goldfish for Popeye with erythromycin. Took out carbon cartridge but that was wondering if I can leave the sponge media in the filter and run filter during treatment? Thanks in advance! 😉

thank you so so much! my betta fish has epistylis atm so i was trying to see if ich x and e.m erythromycin can be mixed together because the e.m erythromycin sadly isn’t working enough to help :((

My problem is my Betta has Fin Rot and I need to treat him more than Indian almond leaves and Aquarium Salt but don't know what amount to use in a 3 gallon tank. I may just have to buy a 5 gallon and dose like you said.

WB on point

My rainbow fish had mouth rot since I bought her I treated for 14 days with melifix.didnt do anything hopefully the api works I just have enough for 2 treatments so expensive over 19 bucks

Do you take the carbon filter out like it says in the instructions or leave it in?

is it good for fin rot as well?

When you do the water changes do you recommend us to still put the water conditioner in the aquarium or should we leave them out?

Where do you get that size of e m erythromycin

So it works well in the water? Someone told me it doesn’t an it has to be in the food, but I don’t know how to dose food as it doesn’t say. My betta fish has white fuzz, will it treat that.

How long does it take for a big blood spot to heal up? I have some with blood spots . Did you say in the video that it's okay to use different meds together ? My fish have the blood spots and ich . Is it okay to add a little more E. M. Meds than instructed on the bottle?

can i use E.M after i did first 2 dosages of fin and body cure?

Where do I get that stuff bulk I can find it I am in ohio

Sir, I have tank of almost 6 gallon. Facing some problems with cyanobactaria. Here api erythromycin is not available please suggest me how much erythromycin 200 tab I have to use for above.

Can you mix it in while the fish is still inside the tank or do I have to remove the fish first

How many times can you do this treatment? Should I wait after 4 doses to do another 4? Or can it be done until I see improvement?

How much should I use for a three-gallon tank?

How come in can't find this anywhere?

Can I use the erythromycin which is for humans on my fishes? As this api medicine is not available in my city. My goldfish has got fin rot.

Can I use it with Kanaplex and Paracleanse Fritz?

I set up a quarantine tank with a seeded sponge filter, my angel fish was bit protecting her eggs. The tank is 10 gallons and a new tank, though. Do you think I should remove the sponge that is seeded because it will kill the bacteria while doing this treatment?

Also does this cause your tank to recycle?

Will it work for frunculosis ?

I have a 125g tank that had african cichlids and one bristlenose pleco that where never quarantined. I'm getting into mollies etc now and have a QT tank. I recently sold the cichlids and all that remains in the 125g is the bristlenose which I plan on quarantining with the new fish when I start the med trio. My question is, what should I do to the 125g make sure nothing is lurking in there? The only thing I suspect the bristlenose could have is internal parasites. Any suggestions would be appreciated

Is it okay to treat new fish from the pet store with erythromycin proactively even if they don't show symptoms?

I can't afford to buy fish antibiotics at the moment. Can I use human antibiotics instead on them? Here in Australia, human antibiotics are cheaper than fish antibiotics. I know in the US it's the reverse.

Will this antibiotic affect an established tank's nitrogen cycle?

I don't know much about this, but another commenter said this medication can kill catfish. Hope your fish is still alive, I guess I'd do a water change asap if he's gotten worse since you medicated? Again Im no expert though!

Hello Can you use E.M. Erythromycin + General Cure and Super Ick all at the same time? I don't have a quarantine tank so can I just medicate my whole tank? Last question: Can I also use all the 3 medications in my tank even if my fish are fine ( as preventative meds)? Thanks in advance and I really hope you answer my questions :)

I would treat the whole tank.

I have a beta fish that has been unable to kick his fin rot for a very long time. I bought some of this medication, but it comes in small packets that say to medicate with one packet per every 10 gallons. He lives in a 1.6 gallon tank, and I am not sure how to portion his medication properly, as it’s unknown to me how much is in the packet in the first place. Any advice? Do you think I should invest in a set of tiny measuring cups for this?

@JHAquatics

You really want to weigh it on a good electronic scale. Then divide that by 10 and come up with the smaller dose. I would try a little marine salt first and some west Indian almond leaves. But if you want to use the E.M.E. use 2/10th of that package. Weighing medicating is much better.

Can I throw some melafix at the problem until I get this at the store later?

@JHAquatics

Melafix is not that helpful, if you add too much to the water you can actually make it hard for the fish to breath which will only stress them more.

Does it kill plants, or it's it safe in planted aquariums?

NOTE: cory and albino cats sensitive to meds and especially chlorine, fluorine and other stuff in tap water! Plecos not so much. Corys freak out for a while when adding tap water directly but not when the water is treated with chlorine remover or aged a couple days.

The box says do a dose. Wait 24 hrs. Do another dose. Wait 24 hours. Then do a 25% water change and dose again. So you can wait to do the water change for a few days? Should you not dose more without a water change? Are the directions on the box not as effective? Or overdosing by adding the second dose before the 25% water change?

When using Cory’s trio, salt is soooo not necessary. Indeed, it is trite to say that there are a myriad of reasons why Cory doesn’t use it as a part of his fish medication kit and has stated that over and over and over again. Salt kills catfish, loaches and plants. Using the Trio cures everything and than some that marine salt would cure but is way more safe, efficient and has a broader range of circumstances that it can cover. Bad advise dude and you don’t even provide a disclaimer when not to use marine salt so that new fish keepers do not kill and cause havoc to fish.

Seriously all your doing is rambling. Some people are actually needing the proper dosage for 1 gallon yet here you are just talking about everything else but what you said you’re going to talk about. Thought this video was going to be helpful not just some guy talking repeating the same thing over and over over
