hello
my severum had gill flukes, and i think he has an internal parasite too.
reasons why. he is acting stressed and unsocial, hiding, loss of color, loss of eye color, banging his gill region into the decor yawning constanly and constantly bending himself like he is stretching his back. he is over all very stressed and unhappy the very opposite of his usual self.
what can i do for him? do u know what this could be? in the chat we suspect gill flukes and internal parasites. i was recommended jungle labs parasite clear and have bought it already. what do u guys think of this product should i use it on him?
please help i love this fish he is like a dog to me not like my other fish. he is my little buddy i cant loose him.

Skin flukes are a possibility...

"Parasite Clear" may be effective if dosed quickly.

The med is fine for treating internal and external parasites...

Flukes, lice, anchor worms are included in the list.

One tab per 10 gallons.

Treat now or risk losing your trop.
