new zealand discus man Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Hi i have done day 1 and then day 3 with water change between of 30%. believe you can just keep on going.. have read day one and two with out water changes but i have not actually done that.. To metro treatment..can at 10mg / gm food..so take pills disolve in water and add to colour bits ..it will soak it up..trial and error as to water and bits. use only little water at first and add bits till all water gone in and bits sticky. leave for about one hr and then should be larger and not stick to fingers.. Use on all feeding fish for 5 days with no other food.. make up daily but if to much put in fridge but try to do just what each day needs. also kills tape worms .. repeat a week later and do as gut clean a week a month.. with all this free if you have better go forth and sell some more discus to others..
