It was a nice share my friend.

Thank you for sharing and for selling pre mixed med with spoon 😊

This is very impressive results. I don’t have betta macrostoma, yet it is on my list of the must have fish lol( for now, I am enjoying my alien betta after multiple fancy bettas I had kept over the last 3 years).When it comes to medication, I wish I found this video last year when my bristlenose pleco and 160 fry got velvet. I managed to save only the adult fish and maybe 20 fry. They were dropping like flies no matter what I did .

If the fish had these parasites in a planted tank then wouldn’t the parasite still be alive in the original tank with plants if you remove the fish to medicate to another tank ? Putting the fish back in original planted tank after treatment would cause parasites to go back on the previously medicated fish ?

Yes thay is correct, you need to salt the planted tank and leave it alone for 3 weeks

Can the medicated solution be put into your tank safely? Will it kill your beneficial bacteria?

It will kill your beneficial bacteria and some plants

Wouldn’t be better 100% clean tap water naturally dechlorinated ?

@abarreto6277 tap water where I live is too hard for macrostoma so it must be RO water

Hello 😌 Thanks for this helpful video. I have powdered acriflavine and kordon MB in bottle. How much of the Kordon brand would I use in ml? As equivalent of what you said? 🤔 Thanks so much

What's the disease?

Hello! I got the premixed meds for my keyhole cichlid. He has gone through the potassium permanganate bath and we are now at about 30 hours of the acriflavine mix. His tail fin is still clamped - how much longer do you think it could take before it is unclamped?

Did he had velvet?

Honestly I am not sure…he has been plagued with slime and thick white spots for a long time now that come and go and have moved to his gills. Appears to be some sort of protozoan parasite but I don’t have confirmation
