Re: sick fish

[Mike & Diane Wise <apistowise@fgn.net>]

Jerry,

I am not a fan of Erythromycin for fish diseases.
It is a gram positive antibiotic and there are
very few gram positive diseases in aquarium fish.
I feel everyone should have at least 1 book on
fish diseases. I like Barron's book "A commonsense
guide to fish health". It is a relatively
inexpensive book written by Terry Fairfield, who
has a degree in aquatic microbiology & an apisto
keeper.
