I have an establish tank but living in a condo no qt tank; a few months ago i added some fishes (sparkling gourami); i now suspect (but have not evidence) of parasite in the tank. Are parasite medicine relatively gentle enough to treat the tank without imperative evidence of parasite actually being in the tank and if so which one do you recommend ? If there are parasite in the tank since i have not seen such i would suspect internal.
Some of the common medicines available here (usa) include:
fritz paracleanse
prazipro
expel-p
salt (i did treat this about 2 months ago as one of the fish showed ick; and while i cured the ick it did nasty things - i used 1 tablespoon - 29 gallon tank)
Thanks
(as a general rule i try to avoid medicines as they seem to mostly do more harm than good but i have some 'high' value fishes in that aquarium and i don't feel comfortable moving them to other aquariums do to this ?irrational? fear of parasite).
