    Fungus treatment question?
    I have a fish with fungus, got a treatment from the shop, added it. 4 hours later I realised I hadn't taken the bio-chem cartridge outta my filter...

    Do I need to add more treatment?? It says I should remove carbon from filter before adding it, which I seem to not have done...
    and also - how long should i keep the filter cartridge out after treating the water?

      well of coarse you have to take out your filter before using it. well try it again but this time WITHOUT the filter

  4. QUESTION:
    I don't have fungus treatment for my fry. can I use some Hydrogen Peroxide Soultion?
    If I can use it, please tell me how much to use in a ten gallon tank.
    The nearest place to get medications for fish is 70 miles away.

    • ANSWER:
      Hydrogen Peroxide will kill the fry for sure. And if it doesn't kill them instantly it will remain in the water and in the fish until it dies. I would say try to call the store and see if you can buy fungus treatment with your credit card and see if they will ship it to you, otherwise order some fungus treatment online and try to get fast shipping.

  5. QUESTION:
    What's a good treatment for leaf spot fungus on red tips?
    I've tried spraying with Daconil but no success.

    • ANSWER:
      If you have sprayed with Daconil 2787, then this is all you need. Just make sure that you repeat with a second spraying 2-3 weeks down the road. Daconil will take care of many fungus and diseases on plants and is one of the best. Just remember, spraying will not reverse the damage that has already been done. No fungicide will do this. It only protects the "new" growth and leaves that haven't been infected with leaf spot. The damaged leaves will eventually dry up and drop off on their own accord. Stay with the Daconil, but make sure you are mixing according to the directions.Hope this helps..
