Hi,
I have Pearl Danios and recently, some have become very skinny, stop eating and then die.
I believe it should be a parasite problem but don't know what or how to treat them. Of course I could be wrong…...
I believe this problem came with some other species of Sawab Barb…a whole school of twenty which died this way over 5 months….
Anyway, I thought it was just confined to the sawab barbs but now it's apparently not…
Awaiting help and advice.
Many thanks in advance.

Current tank: 1 4 tier 3ft fish rack
Livestock: WC Ivanacara Adoketa, WC Apistogramma Kelleri 'Red Cheeks', A , WC Apistogramma Mendezi, WC Apistogramma Cruziero, WC Apistogramma Elizabethae and WC Biotoecus Operularis.
does this spread from fish to fishes?
Parasites do spread among fishes in a community tank... you can try using Seachem Paraguard, i've used it in my quarantine tank to good effect, have managed to prevent parasite related issues so far.
Hi all,
Sorry for the late reply,
Was not able to log on till now....
Anyway,
Yes, It is spreading in the community tank.
I also have shrimps in there, amanos, crd etc.
Its a big community.
I cannot get Parzi Gold here in china .
The sachem paraguard is preventive right?
I'm looking also for cure if there is any.
Any alternative?
Another 2 were affected and brought out of the tank.....
I'm sure another is prime candidate....watching everyday...
What should I do?
Can you get API General Cure?

Seachem Paraguard is more of a broad spectrum treatment (its a combination of medications)... its usually used when you are not sure of what is the exact parasite cause. I guess its less toxic than other types of medications as i've not had any fish or shrimp losses since using it for my quarantine tank.
It can also be used as a 1 hour dip treatment with more concentrated dosage too (based on the bottle instructions). I have not had to use that method yet so far, but i've heard of friends who used that method on their fishes which exhibit visible problems and managed to cure them over time.
