Help! whitespot in tank with BN's


jn

Recommended Posts

Can I used meds with bristlenoses? I have both some white spot cure and some wunder cure, I also have sea salt or can consider upping the temp.

What do you advise? the BN's seem unaffected as yet, I think its early stage so want to start treatment asap!

Help!

I have used the white spot cure in tanks with bristlenose without any issue. As always after treating the tank monitor the fish and if they appear overly distressed then begin water changes, and possibly add carbon to the filter to remove the medication.

In fact the only treatment so far that really distressed the bristlenose was fluke tabs - they went as stiff as a board but recovered after a decent water change.

Thanks Matthew.

I started treatment with wunder cure yesterday after finding another post (through the search) that said they had used it on their fish but basically your post reassured me that they should be ok with some meds which is why I went looking to see if anyone had used the Wunder cure.

I had used the wunder cure in that tank before so I was more comfortable with it being a 'known quanitity' with their tankmates.

All the fish are coping fine including the BN's. :) (and the month old fry I have in there)
