I have been in the hobby for a little over 50 years.
This video should be required for anyone getting into keeping fishy. This is a public service, and I appreciate Gabe giving it out. If someone wants a compelling reason to listen to this content, then let it be that it will SAVE YOU MONEY. It will SAVE YOU FISH. While this information is not new, it is concise and accurate. It’s not based on hearsay. Thanks for posting. WOW!
Never get tired of your videos! Thanks very much!
I did discus in the 80s and 90s. I would've paid a fortune for this info when i started.
Gabe, you are a blessing to the discus aquarists community.
Yea Gape truly appreciate you
As I've said before, always a plethora of DEEPLY appreciated and valuable information!!! Thank you so very very much for all you do to help us out Gabe.
Gabe your information is from many years of working with discus. The perfect combination of experience, and hard lessons having to deal with multiple problems and issues over the years. Every action or delay to reacting to any situation will have consequences. For you it is a automatic reflex to draw from your knowledge base. This fish is showing signs of distress. You know what the most likely root cause is and how to negate the problem before it becomes too serious. Yes your main love is discus. However your content is just as valid for most types of freshwater fish keeping. Always get the information from a person who actually knows about the subject. The horses mouth. Don’t walk around to the back of the horse. What comes from that end is not what you need.
Amen brother. You are speaking to one of the most frustrated individuals when seeking knowledge from others.
One of my favorite videos from Gabe. Thank you !!
Thanks Gabe and Team 💪🏽
I've been rescuing goldfish for 6 years now but today I got one in who had been attacked by a cat and then kept in a bowl for three days and not fed by the person who found it. I added acriflavin but then got worried I'd used the wrong thing or should I have added something else alongside. Thank you so much for settling my mind! Most of the time good water quality and correct sized tanks does the job but this little guy needed something more. Again, thank you 🙏
Always great to hear from an expert. Someone that does this for a living. No BS.
As always a perfect help for us hobbyists! God bless you Gabe!
Thank you for passing this knowledge along to the rest of us, it really helps.
Thanks, Gabe, you rock!

Thank you for the infomation. Could you please do a video on prophylactic treatment techniques to use on fry in the first two weeks.
You're the man... !!!!
Gabe, would love to see video how you quarantine new fish and maybe medication while quarantining the fish
Gracias Gabi por tus explicaciones, un saludo desde españa
Excellent info Gabe! Do you use all antibiotics at once or try different ones to see what works best? Also topic for video. Could you cover some of the regularly suggested meds like prazipro, wormer plus, etc? Are they any good? There are many internet doctors out here suggesting A to Z. Things like stress coat and the fixes like Pima, etc. Paraguard and lavamisole...the list goes on. So many confusing meds.
Thx Gabe Very helpful
hello Gabe ! this was a very informativ video . Pls give us more videos , more frequently . I love to see unpacking of discus and Heckel in the first hand but also what you already have in your store.
I wish I had more time.
Thank you for the valuable information you give us. In the future, will you make deliveries of products (not fish) also to other countries such as Israel?
Thank you 👍🏻
Excelente video
Muchas gracias
Good one!!!
Informative ❤
great vid, tks
Gabe, I had to exit the Hobby in 2004; before then the Name “Jack Wattley” was synonymous with Discus. Anytime I opened a magazine that’s what you saw when regarding the highest quality Discus. I only owned two from JWD but just recently reconnecting with the hobby and seeing the company thrive made me so happy. The information you’re putting out is a godsend to people. Thank you for the hard work and hopefully when I can set up a new tank YOUR fish will follow soon after.
Gabe , can we use erythromycin to treat fin rot in fishes?
Do u mean 1000g of each tablet for all 3 medicines or any 1 of the three medicine?is it any one of them oxytetracycline or erythromycine or enrofloxacin? Or all three. Pls reply.
El mejor.
What do you use for internal bacterial infection?
Hi Gabe just wondering if it alright to put salt in with my discus pairs for breeding . Cheers from Australia
Fir how many days we should treat with potassium permanganate?
Gabe, when you receive new import fish what type of medication do you use?
Hi, I just purchased metronidazole from your website, I also acquired some garlic guard. Im trying to medicate my 200-Gallon fish tank. Im thinking of going the food medication route. I know you said to only add a pinch of metronidazole to the food, in this case, granules, which I will soak in garlic guard. How often should I feed the medicated food a day? Can my fish overdose? Will the treatment be the same 10 day treatment?
Can the medication affect discus fry?
Can i feed while treating with epsom salt?
💯💯💯...
Hey gabe, what should be the ideal size for Discus breeding tank?
One doubt sir, the salt you are mentioning is a epsom salt or normal rock salt?
Can i put acriflavine on my main tank? Can it remove beneficial bacteria on my medias?
Thanks gabe . If my discus are skinny but ratting like pigs , what meds should I use. They look a little stunted and stress.
Look up the Metronidazol video
Love from India ❤🎉
Takk! Du it’s klar... Thanks
🙏🏻
I heard we should turn off aquarium lights during the 10 day treatment of metro..is this right?
Hi gabe, what do you think aboyt methelyne blue? Can it be use in place of acryflavine?
Thanks!
Like comparing aspirin to Tylenol
👍👍👍
Any videos on disinfecting an aquarium after the tank is infected?
Gabe please can you help .Woke up this morning and the discus had a cotton wool look about their eyes and they have faded in colour and they have stopped eating and are very lethargic.The water readings all seem normal .
Wow you are on it! Do you know about sick flowerhorn? Eats and poops fine looks great but bloats and holds urine i have to squeeze to remove the fluid ? Been on metroplex for almost 2 weeks ans feeding kanaplex in food and still bloating???
Change feed. Use Epsom salt
Could using too much ph buffers,de chlorinators & using precise medicines in the main tank cause the fish to loose their immunity? If not, what causes them to loose immunity ?
Thank you :)
Realizará video en Español?
Hi Gabe
What is the best treatment for body fungus
Thanks
We use Seachem Paraguard
Where do you get your meds from
Thanks for the info. A request though. Can you put on your website under each medicine the dosage? I have had to write you for several that I have purchased. Lost the email responses. Would be a great help.
Thanks again.
Great idea
Good morning ... Could have subtitles in Spanish / Buenos días... Podría tener subtítulos en español / Bom Dia ... Poderia ter Legenda em Espanhol ... Thanks and Hugs.
Sir can we use tetracycline hydrochloride to treat swim disorders in fishes?
No. It will do nothing. In the old days parole would treat the problem with quinine sulfate. Same meds used for malaria. Problem is that it also killed the host after you corrected the problem.
@@JackWattleyDiscus oh then sir what will be the best medication for swim disorder or whirling disease?
Kan U teach Me! Fiches og All sickens discus 🐠., Takk
Do you sell these medicines? If so please let know how

Hey gabe, is Epsom salt bad for plants i've heard mixed things
Magnesium Sulfate is actually a fertilizer.
@@JackWattleyDiscus my man Gabe spitting Facts 🔥
Acrflavine treatment we can use sponge fliter
Yes
Thanks
It's 1gm for 302.833liters
And 1 tablespoon
And for 1month babies dosage
Hi gabe i have one serious questiin about food of discuss.
How to make him eat the other food / how to change habit of any food to another?
My discuss dint eat since 12 days after i stopped feeding him blood worms.
Metronidazole and raise the temperature to 88F
@@JackWattleyDiscus thank you 😊
Give them hikari vibra bits as they resembles blood worm in appearance then when they completely relay on vibra bits u can also introduce other foods like tetrabits and other higher brand high quality pellet foods
Have you ever had problems with discus whirling disease? I lost a couple fish last year, they just started spinning in circles and going crazy. I never found out what caused it. Can you make a video of the disease if you have any experience with this?
Whirling is caused by two things. 1 is feeding live tubifex worms. This will give the discus a brain bacteria that causes this. The second and most common is electricity. Usually a pump or a heater which is shorting out and electrocuting them. Usually it's the biggest with most mass who is affected. If the problem cannot be found a aquarium grounding rod is recommended.
@Jack Wattley Discus Thanks I'll look into the electricity, and I will get a ground rod if necessary. Does Metronidazole kill the brain bacteria, or how do I treat if it ever happens again? Thanks for the reply. I also left another comment. Hopefully, you will see it and also reply.
Those should only be used after culture testing reveals susceptibility. Otherwise (and even then still) using antibiotics may improve resistances in the present bacteria. In most EU countries you can't even get those antibiotics over the counter.
This world is full of things that some people just don't get , but what we just got here is pure and simple advice !
@@stoneysscapes7544 Just saying. Dosing antibiotics without proper diagnosis or need is not a good idea. It's good for getting fish big enough to sell as fast and cheap as possible, economizing stock density and so on. But it does create problems for the customers, like fish that are too vulnerable to infections or even already come prepackaged with antibiotic-resistant latent infections.
