URGENT: Can Maracyn-two Be Used Safely in a Tank With Cories

Aside from the ick, some of my fish have come down with what appears to be gill disease. Can I use maracyn-two to treat it or will I have to find some other medicine? Will salt help in the meantime? I don't want to kill my cories. What can I do?!?!

How to Treat Cories Safely for Ick

I have a 29G community tank which my cories are in, and have noticed that my 4 female guppies have ick. I was wondering what the safest way to treat the tank would be? I realize that cories are scaleless fish and need special treatment, so what can I treat them with? Any help would be appreciated ...

Thanks Ian. I appreciate you helping me out. Is there any special care I need to worry about? I feed them a staple diet of sinking food tablets for bottom feeders and they eat the left over tropical flake food I feed the platies. They also get treats of freeze-dried bloodworms and tubifex worms. I ...

Thank you for you help Fiskars. I knew for sure two of them weren't Julli, but I wan't sure about the third. Trilineatus? That doesn't come as much of a shock to me. Apparently those are always confused as Julli. So I guess that means I got a deal on two and got ripped off on one. Oh well, they are ...

C. Julli and C. Schwartzi?

Hello All, :)

I am new to cory keeping and I purchased these cories last week at a lfs. They were sold to me as C. Julli, but I can tell that two of them are not for sure. I have done a little research and thought maybe they were C. Schwartzi, but I can't tell. Too many of the cories look so much ...
