CATDOLL : CATDOLL: What medicine should I use if my fish are infected with Ichthyophthirius?

1. Increase water temperature

Ichthyophthirius multifiliis is not resistant to high temperatures by nature. Raising the water temperature has always been a good method for treating Ichthyophthirius multifiliis disease. Raising the water temperature by about 30° can promote epidermal shedding, and drugs can be used at the same time.

2. Treatment with dried chili peppers

Boil dried chili peppers with water or chili powder, and sprinkle them into the fish pond at a ratio of 250 grams of dried chili peppers per cubic meter of water. Sprinkle them once a day for three consecutive days to kill the Ichthyophthirius multifiliis.

6. Salt water therapy

Sprinkling a certain proportion of salt water into the water, or placing the fish infected with Ichthyophthirius wilt disease in salt water with a ratio of salt to water (1:100) for three to five days can kill the Ichthyophthirius wilt.

Ichthyophthirius multifida

Ichthyophthirius multifiliis [Symptoms]: The body surface, fins, and gills of the diseased fish are covered with small white dot-like cysts, which secrete a large amount of mucus to form a layer of white film. The fins appear to rot and the worms can be seen under a microscope.

Ichthyophthirius microphylla【Epidemic situation】: The epidemic season of this disease is from March to May and from August to October every year.

Ichthyophthirius microplus【Prevention and Control Methods】: Prevention: Use quicklime to thoroughly clean the pond and kill the insect cysts; spray 20ml/mu*m of Fibroworm Cleaner throughout the pond. Use once every 15-20 days.

Treatment: (1) Spray 25 ml/mu*m of Fibroworm Cleaner throughout the pond. (2) Mix the bait with Tricyclic Killer and High Energy Immune VC for oral administration and feed it to the pond for 5-7 days.

【Functional characteristics】This product is extracted and concentrated from green plants, and is a biologically active additive with internal insecticidal function. Its characteristics can enhance the physical fitness of animals, improve immunity, and spread through the body's circulatory system to eliminate parasites such as trichodina, spore worms, Chinese fleas, anchor fleas, wheel worms, and seawater shield ciliates in the body or on the surface of the body, without any adverse effects on the fish itself. Therefore, this agent is suitable for fish and shrimp mixed culture ponds, especially for fish and shrimp mixed culture in large water surfaces, which can maintain water quality, not affect natural bait, and save usage. This product is added with special aquatic attractants, which also greatly improves the feeding of aquatic animals.

[Scope of application] Carp, grass carp, black carp, crucian carp, large yellow croaker, mandarin fish, eel, black fish, loach, catfish, river grouper, spotted forktail and other fish.

[Usage and Dosage] When the water temperature is 18°C-30°C, mix 250g of this product with 20-40kg of feed and feed. Use twice a day for 3-5 consecutive days. Generally, the worms begin to fall off after the third day of using this product, and after the fifth day, the worms can fall off completely and the wound will heal.

【Notes】1. Be cautious when using medication for the seedling stage of the hailworm;

[Product Features] This product is a cationic surfactant. The hydrophobic and hydrophilic genes in its molecular structure can penetrate into the lipid and protein layers of the cell plasma membrane respectively, changing the permeability of bacteria and protozoa, leading to the loss of intracellular substances and the death of bacteria and protozoa.

[Indications] Used to prevent marine and freshwater aquaculture of the four major carps, sweet-scented fish, eel, sea bass, yellow catfish, turbot, pufferfish, white pomfret, tilapia, etc. This product is a new type of bromine-containing high-efficiency bactericidal and insecticide, which has a special effect on ciliates. At the same time, it can prevent and control parasites such as wheelworms, oblique tube worms, three-generation worms, acanthocephala, and small Ichthyophthirius, and completely inhibit various insects and larvae in the water.

[Usage and Dosage] Prevention: use 20-25ml of this product for every 1 meter of water. Treatment: use 20-25ml of this product for every 1 meter of water.

Commonly used drugs to kill Ichthyophthirius spp. cannot penetrate into the fish skin and reach the "white spots" on the fish body, and cannot kill Ichthyophthirius spp. parasitic on the fish. Many drugs are administered by hypertonic, air infiltration or surfactant immersion, but few drugs can kill both the schizont stage and the trophozoite stage of Ichthyophthirius spp.

1. Green water high temperature exposure method

This is a traditional treatment. Put the sick fish in a small container with green water and expose it to sunlight. It will be cured after a few days. Because Ichthyophthirius punctatus is sensitive to temperature, the suitable water temperature is 16-22℃. Green water absorbs heat quickly. After exposure to the sun, the water temperature gradually rises. When it reaches above 26℃, the worm will fall off by itself. This method is often used when ornamental goldfish are bred in a tank and Ichthyophthirius punctatus is infected. This method can be used in small water bodies.

2. Chili and ginger method

The pepper and ginger method has received mixed reviews, with some reporting good results and others reporting poor results. According to the author's observation, pepper and ginger are used properly and are effective once before June 20 each year. The key is to use ginger, which is galangal, and pepper, which is very spicy, and not vegetable pepper. Add water and boil before spraying, and the effect is obvious. The pepper and ginger method has a certain effect on the schizont stage of Ichthyophthirius punctatus, but has no obvious killing effect on the trophozoite stage.

3. Ultraviolet light method

Ichthyophthirius is very sensitive to ultraviolet rays, and the minimum lethal dose of ultraviolet rays to cysts is about 100,000 microwatt seconds/cm2. Using a suitable ultraviolet lamp to irradiate the breeding water can kill the Ichthyophthirius carried by external water sources.

4. Raise the water temperature

The water temperature increase method is suitable for small water bodies. Slowly increase the water temperature to about 30℃ (the water temperature adapted to Ichthyophthirius spp. is 15-20℃). Ichthyophthirius spp. is in a thermally unfavorable environment and will fall off or die. After the water temperature is maintained at 30℃ for 48 hours, a large amount of water is changed (replaced with 30℃ water), and then the temperature is slowly lowered to room temperature. This method is especially suitable for raising ornamental fish in home aquariums.

Hello, after being infected by Ichthyophthirius, the larvae will attach to the surface of the fish and secrete mucus to form white spots, so it is also called white spot disease. Because of the mucus protection, drug treatment is usually not effective. There are two main ways to treat Ichthyophthirius. One is to heat with chlorpyrifos. The higher the temperature, the faster the larvae of Ichthyophthirius mature and the easier it is to fall off. If the water temperature is heated to above 30 degrees, the larvae will fall off and die soon. Another treatment method is to add salt. Salt can change the osmotic pressure of the mucus on the surface of Ichthyophthirius, causing the larvae of Ichthyophthirius to dehydrate and promote their shedding. The salt content of the aquarium can be gradually adjusted to 1%, and the Ichthyophthirius will fall off and die soon.

Mao spores, mix with feed and prepare for spring feeding, it will be ready in three to five days.
