Hi guys.
I have a tank with a pair of clowns and a baby bamboo shark in a 180g
I had a purple tang that unfortunately passed and when I took to my lfs they’ve had a look at it and said it had white spot. My clowns at that stage( 3 weeks ago) had gone off food and were acting weird so I’ve figured they would also have white spot.
Immediately started treating with Polyb Lab Medic - that treats white spot and velvet.
Treated for 15 days and they’ve started eating again on day 3 or 4 and hadn’t twitched since day 5 so I’ve stopped treating as the recommendation is to treat for 10 to 20 days.
Now, that I have stopped treating for 5 days they are itching on the rocks and twitching a lot. They twitched a lot for about 2-3 minutes but I didn’t record. They are still itching and look uncomfortable. Should I just go back to treating with polyb lab medic or should I look for a flukes solution ? I can’t identify the difference between velvet/flukes. Also they are mostly white so can’t see white spots either. I’ll put a short video up so you guys can have a look at breathing, gills, fins and how they’re swimming.
Thanks for all the help refers. Also I’m based in Austrália so some of the stuff you guys use in America might not be available here or vice versa. Vídeo taken under 100% white light
