Is it true that featherfins should ideally be with other featherfins? are they better solitary or do they have conspecifics aggression? I've found conflicting information regarding this. Also - I wanted to thank this particular community. A few years ago I posted about a featherfin with HITH/LLE, an...

I've googled it quite a bit and read many studies, thanks. I'm not questioning the validity of the studies. I'm not saying it wasn't a parasite really. I'm saying whatever the cause was, either parasite or diet or whatever else, since there isn't a way to definitively know, soilent green will help a...

Twotank, take a look at the link birger posted earlier in this thread. If it was a parasite metro would have worked and he didn't have white poo at the time. HITH is not only caused by parasites - it can also be caused by poor water quality or a mineral or vitamin lacking in the diet. I'm not saying...

Hey. I thought I would follow up for the sake of those googling who may stumble upon this thread. It has been almost two years since he began showing signs of HITH. I have borderline basic water but acidic tank water due to driftwood. The HITH is reversing. I have fed him soilent green every night f...

Hey, wanted to let you guys know I managed to knock out the LLE/HITH. I don't know how I did, but I fed him VitaChem, Omega One Algae Wafers, Hikari, frozen food, NLS Thera+A and Soilent Green. It's practically reversed and he is healing up slowly. He has a few tiny holes healing but even the white ...

6.8-7.2 range. Not too acidic, not too basic. As far as I know they can go as high as 7.5 for their ph (eupterus). mine is really smack in the middle of their PH range.

Water has always been fine. It is overfiltered. Ammonia always 0, Nitrites always 0, nitrates always low. Tank is a 90g. Companions are only 6 diamond tetras and 6 boesemani rainbowfish. There's barely anything in there really, it's not water quality and it's not stress. yes, its been making me wond...

I have a peculiar situation with a eupterus. He has HITH/LLE I cannot seem to get rid of. It is not worsening, but it isn't getting better. I'm stumped. I have added more veggies/vitamin c into his diet along with dosing metronidazole food just in case. I have repashy soilent green as well. Anything...
