medication.

The pearls are still doing curling but it is still eating, water parameters are fine, is this a sign of internal parasite attack? Should I quarantine the whole tank and add medication? If should, what kind of medicine can i use? Will Sera Baktopur Direct works?

Thanks

Bro, I may be wrong, but i have neber come across rays with disk curl problems and still eating. Would it be that there is actually nothing wrong? Typically an eating ray is an healthy ray...just an anxious owner perhaps after losing an mm?

Me too . He is still eating, sometime swims a bit, but when there is no food he just lying there, not swimming and do the curling things. I will post a video tonight for u guys to observe what actually has happened to my ray.

Thanks

from your description, think it is not stable yet.. it a 50/50 whether it will pull thru. daily wc ard 20% helps.. I would switch off the air blow as the current will stressed it further.

The ray has been with me for more than 1 month, think its not stable yet?

Today i just transfer them all to a 4ft FGT, using back same tank water, filtered with mechanical filtration as told by bro Aro1. Just now after wait for 6 hours, i offered them some frozen BW and they take it readily , and the pearl pup has stop doing the curling thing, I'm not 100% sure about this though, will monitor them tomorrow and update u guys how's the situation going.

Many thanks to bro AF in here
