Hmmm... It seems that Maracyn doesn't taste very good. Option to feed it to him probably won't work. I have the powdered packets.

Hi Brad

Are any other fish showing any sighns?

I have some Proto Marin left from when I was fighting Ich and Velvet if you want to try it.

As most marine bacterial infections are gram negative, I would go with Kanamycin.

I'll keep treating with kanamycin...and try to get him out for treatment.

Oh that's a tough picture to look... freckles is the bomb afterall. I know nothing about fish treatments but you certainly have my sympathy man.

Not sure if you can find this locally, but maybe try looking this up?

My GF works at a veterinary clinic, and she says that if anyone knows of a fish vet, Parkgate Animal Hospital would be the people to ask.

She says maybe try asking the ichtyologists at SFU/UBC, or an aquaculture specialist, who may have experience with aquatic diseases.

Hope Freckles will be ok!

Freckles has been successfully captured!! I've placed him in my water change sump...medicated it...and we'll see.

No, all other fish seem fine. This is similar to my gold rim tang. It died horribly, while no other fish showed any sign whatsoever.
