Posted by: erico at Sun Sep 18 10:57:21 2005 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by erico ] If it really is fungus (superficial slime that easily wipes off), try keeping the water more on the acidic side and use a good aquarium remedy called Fungus Cure from Marine Phameceuticals. It is available at many U.S. pet shops and aquariums. Some prefer the more colorless acriflavin as opposed to the combination of neutroflavin and malachite green B in the above mentioned medication. If it doesn't wipe off and is deeply invasive of the tissue, you may have SCUD, which requires serious injectable antibiotic treatment (see the Aug 28 thread on a sick spotted turtle - the dosages are the same). | ||
