i think my discus have a case of flukes, im not a 100% sure yet, but if i treat them for it, will i have to replace my filter meadia, and if so how do i that? wouldnt a whole new thing of media be bad for the tank as it has no good bacteria in it?

Nathan,

I have seen your posts on the forum and I personally would love to help you as best I can - but you are going to have to get some better pictures of the fish in question. The more and the clearer the pics - the better.

Nathan, you only need to replace the fine filter floss, not all the media in your filter. The rest of the media just needs a rinse in a bucket ot tank water.
