Seems i have just gotten bronchiatus anyhow it sux bt yesterday when i was going to give Mike his last shot of Baytril for his abdominal infection along with case of salmonella, i found him dead in the corner of the tank, i've swore to myself never to buy WC again, those poor guys were constantly sick first the bout with parasites then the skin infection nwo this is what finaly got them. Im very sad that i couldn't save spike and mike they were both great.

being WC doesnt always mean a bad thing,If the breeder does proper care and give then pancur or something for parasites
the uro should be fine.

my uro is WC and he has gained a extreme amount of wieght going from about 200grams to 265grams in a month or so.

if the breeder is good than they will give care to WC just the same.

Sean-

I'm very sorry - you're just having all the rotten luck lately. My two are also wild caught and I've had parasite problems with them, too. Doug Dix had some CB hatchlings (Mali and I think Saharan) and maybe still some yearlings, last I knew - it's been several months, though.

Sean...
So sorry you lost Mike too! I hope you can console yourself with the fact that you loved them and took very good care of them. I think you will be seeing more CB animals in the near future with many malis and some saharans already for sale. Keep your eyes open and talk to well known, reputable breeders.
