Re: Black face
Rich,
Did you ever lose a fish that looked bloated and just wasted away?
If your answer is yes,you should be worry about Bloodworms.I read the aticle
about the bad effects of bloodworms on young Discus in the latest TFH
issue-Wattleys( here's that name again,I'm not related or affiliated to
him)Discus Corner last night.Again I've seen the same thing that Jack
mentioned many times until I found out it was the darn Bloodworms.
Nothing wrong with clean Blackworms.I'm just very allergic towards them.
Got to go
Max
