while searching for a green water recipe for a fry starter I found this very interesting post on Fish TB or Mycobacteriosis on Adrian Tappin's Rainbow fish site Adrian was a cichlid keeper of some note in Brisbane many years back but heading into Natives especially Rainbowfish once you start reading and note the symptoms some will go "I've had this with some fish" http://www.rainbowfish.info/forum/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=3456 that linked to these http://www.rainbowfish.info/forum/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=2973 and here http://rainbowfish.angfaqld.org.au/Book.htm if you don't look at the other links you MUST look at this one this is, A Fishkeeper's Guide to Mycobacteriosis by Adrian Tappin revised March 2014 there is a lot of text that may go over your head but persist especially the last chapter it may change your ideas in tank maintenance http://www.mediafire.com/view/7s3zqsora78syb3/Myco2014.pdf This post has been promoted to an article
