How to Check Your Fish for Bacteria & Fungus

Video Transcript

"Being sick isn't fun and it's not fun for your fish either. My name is Michael and today we're going to talk about how to check your fish for bacteria and fungus. We should be looking at our tank every single day and the condition of our fish. What we're going to look for is a condition of their fins, their eyes, make sure that they're not cloudy, whether they're sitting at the bottom, floating at the top, whether they have red blood streaks through their fins, on their body, gray matter. All of these are important things to look for in diagnosing your fish's ailment. I personally like to start out with natural products for my tank. MELAFIX is an anti-bacterial and PEMEFIX is an anti-fungal. These are best when used together. If you do have a bacterial infection and you have an open wound, its easy for that to develop into fungus as well, so I always recommend using these together. If you're confused about it, write down the symptoms of your fish, talk to your local pet store, consult the Internet and they can be easily diagnosed. I enjoy my fish and I enjoy them even better when they're healthy. My name is Michael and enjoy your tank as well."
