Hello Fish Lovers,
I hope you are doing good!!!
Friends Today I am going to introduce a very common but misinterpreted topic for Flowerhorn fishes or any kind of fishes that is Deworming. Firstly you should know that does your fish really needs deworming or your fish is on the verge of deworming which means your fish is in position in which worms in its body are stored in a large quantity. So addressing the issue of how to assure your flowerhorn fish needs deworming is by noticing the following points:-
1. Bloated stomach or enlarged stomach
2. Flowerhorn color changing to black
3. Head is lowering down day by day
4. red poop contains some white particles
5. Lips are swelling.
6. Eyes popping out
Taking the physical changes such as color change and decrease in head size, popped eyes or swelled lips in the fish may make you affirm the possibility of worms in the fish body but the most serious issue is in the stomach that is the worms are staying in the stomach or are living in the stomach. Though a bloated stomach is a physical indication for the time to do the deworming process the worm alert is not seen sometimes with any of these physical indications which lead to the Flowerhorn white poop issue.
If this white poop issue is not addressed on time then the risk of fish death is high.
Guys as these worms in the stomach of fish can lead to fish death so it is better to take care of your flowerhorn from starting and you must remove them from fish stomach timely. Since these worms in the stomach are the cause of many problems related to fishes so 90% of fish issues can be solved by doing the deworming process on time. So finally you came to know the importance of the deworming process now let’s see how the deworming process can be done in the present times at home.
As many people use medicines for treating worms issue and they put different types of medicines suggested by the shopkeepers or fish breeders in the aquarium tank so that the medicine in the water enters the fish body to treat the worms. Secondly, most people mix medicines with the fish feed so that medicine is taken up by the fish along with the food.
So basically medicines are the only source of treating the worms in the fish stomach at this time.
So let me introduce you to the process of deworming done by me with my flowerhorns. I gave them Garlic for deworming their stomachs. Shocked..!! Or Confused..??
So I started to form an idea that how garlic can be fed to the fishes. I devised two methods of feeding garlic to the fishes. The first method I will be sharing with you today and second in upcoming videos. As I mentioned earlier I followed a three days process with my flowerhorns MAX and NEMO. On the first day, I made them fast. Fasting is essential as the deworming needs an empty stop to make the detoxifying agent work or act on the worms. So fasting my flowerhorns prepared them for the deworming process.
On the second day around 24 hours later or more I started to prepare the garlic-based feed for the flowerhorns as shown in video. As you can see I have first peeled 2 garlic cloves and crushed them with the help of mortar and pestle making them into a paste. After that I soaked the ocean free FH G1 pellets, around 4 pellets 2 each for both flowerhorns, and left it for around 5 minutes so that the garlic contents and its juice can get mixed with the pellets. As you can see the pellets are now mixed with garlic and become soften by the garlic juice so feed them one by one to the fish. As fish was fasting for around 24 hours so it will eat the feed instantly. But due to softening it can break into pieces and eaten up by the fish subsequently. Friends flowerhorn might don’t like the taste of the pellet due to garlic added to it. Since medicines are bitter in taste and who want to take them so same can be applied to fishes. But it is essential for the patient to have them. So feed them the required dose of garlic mixed pellets one by one to the fish. don’t feed any other pellet in between or later to the flowerhorn as it will hamper the treatment process.
I want to repeat it as do not feed them normal pellets as they won’t be helpful for the fish health. Repeat these garlic mixed pellets for feeding the flowerhorn for the subsequent times as per your feeding schedule.
Now on third day do the 30% water change in addition to the bottom cleaning using siphon.
If you won’t do water change then the worms which came along with poop will contaminate the water. I would advise you to change the water surely otherwise there is no benefit of doing deworming.
