    • Fins appear ragged and split. Disease can progress until fins and tail are completely eroded.

    • Secondary fungal infections commonly occur.

    • We recommend API MELAFIX (or BETTAFIX if you have a betta fish), or alternatively PIMAFIX, FURAN-2 or FIN & BODY CURE.

    • Fish develop a bloated appearance due to accumulation of fluid in the body cavity.

    • Scales may appear to stick out from the sides of fish.

    • In advanced cases, fish lose the ability to swim and may float upside down.

    • If infested with parasites, fish may scratch on objects in the aquarium and exhibit rapid breathing.

    Mouth Fungus – Saddleback Disease

    • Raised, gray patches are observed on the fins and mouth areas of fish.

    • Live bearers, such as guppies and mollies, develop grayish patches on their backs, giving rise to the name “saddle back disease.”

    • Infected areas may develop into red ulcers and infect the gills, causing rapid loss of fish.

    • We recommend API MELAFIX (or BETTAFIX if you have a betta fish) or PIMAFIX, or alternatively FURAN-2 or FIN & BODY CURE.

    Bacterial Gill Disease

    Hole-In-The-Head Disease (Hexamita)

    • The most obvious symptom is the pitting and erosion of skin and muscle tissue around the face of the fish. This erosion appears to be a symptom of the parasite’s presence in the intestinal tract, not on the surface of the fish.

    • Many fish exhibit poor appetite, weight loss and nervousness; without proper treatment, death ultimately results.

    • We recommend API GENERAL CURE

    Ich (Ichthyophthirius)

    • Early symptoms of this infection in fish include darting in the aquarium and scratching against the gravel and ornaments.

    • Fish exhibit labored breathing and may remain at the water’s surface, near filters and aeration devices.

    • White spots may or may not be visible on the fish.
