Howdy All,
I bought a couple of melons a few months ago, and after what I thought a suitable quarantine would be have added them to my community tank of 5 other adult discus and friends (cardinals, rummy nose and black neons).
I believe one of them has since developed HITH with a lovely hole and whitish area around it on his / her forehead, and the others have gotten shy and sulky. They are still all eating happily, but now hiding alot more and I have also seen the tell tale clear / white jelly poo floating around, but I haven't seen who has been dropping them.
I have 2 questions:-
1. As I wish to eradicate it totally straight away from all fish, is it possible to dose a community tank with the tetras still in it or will the metro harm the littleun's?
2. As I haven't had HITH for a long time and I don't have any metro, does anybody know of a good vet / supplier on the north side of Brisbane where I can purchase some medication?
Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Geoff
