Will a salt bath remove or kill encysted black spots from parasites on a wild caught minnow? Will the salt harm the minnow? What dosage should be used for how long in a small treatment container (not the main tank).
Hi, I’m having a problem with a tiny white bug infestation in my amphibians tanks, they arrived in damp substrate that came with a frog and now I can’t get rid of them. They are the same size as a spring tail but slow moving and round, maybe a mite? Any advice on how to get rid of them greatly appreciated as they keep coming back especially around damp areas
Hello. So right now for my baby crested gecko tank set up I have a 10 gallon with live plants and some wood. (First time reptile owner) I have had this problem before. There are these VERY small little silver bugs and they are in the dirt and also on the wood. I didn’t make this bio active. I don’t think they are on the plants but there is a lot. I am using the dirt bricks and last time this happened I cleaned out his tank but they are back. They are not on my crestie. Are these ok? Suggestions?
How to treat scale rot?
Type of food they eat Type of water to use
I've been giving my guinea pigs this for a supplement and it's been working great. When I got Sebastian he was 3 months so I only did 16 drops, but Sincestian is now 8 months I was thinking putting the full dose of 32 drops in the water. But Cosmo is only five months. If I went to 32 drops would it be bad for Cosmo? I do have two water bottles but they share everything so either way he will drink the other bottle.
My vet recommended a lime sulfur dip for my dog's red itchy skin. I made an excess amount of the dip.. I have it in a 1 gallon container. How long can the solution be stored? Room temp? Refrigerated?
Why are there a bunch of gnats in my crested geckos live terrarium? Maybe 5-7 in one terrarium. I have two live terrariums. They aren’t on my gecko just one the dirt, plants, wood, etc.
So since the last time I asked he started to show signs of fin rot and this morning I saw one thin white filament attached to his left fin. Doesn't appear to be attached to his body anywhere else but his one fin. He is in a 1 gal tank and I put a fungal treatment in his bowl. Was this the right way to go or should I simply keep with salt and pristine water
I am wondering if I can use food grade diatomaceous earth in my green anoles terrarium that has mites
Whats a low cost treatment for my infected fish with ich that already have the white spots on them
I keep axolotl and am having a continuous fungus problem, my water tests are great. I can provide the parameters if I actually speak with someone. It’s been a period of a few months and the fungus keeps coming back. This is just one of them 3 out of 4 have gotten it.
