Will E.M. Erythromycin kill my white snail and my four plants?


Question by movietalk_info: Will E.M. Erythromycin kill my white snail and my four plants?
One of my zebra danios highly-developed unfastened red sores and died in the tank. After I removed the dead fish, I went to PetSmart and they told me to use Aquarium Pharmaceuticals E.M. Erythromycin packets over a four day period to kill the bacteria. I am worried b/c three days before I purchased 4 grass plants and one snail. I only have two packets left then the treatment is complete. But I’m a nervous wreck b/c the tank is in it’s 4th week of cycling. The two Mickeys and six zebra danios have been together for three weeks now. Should I finish the treatment and see if it kills the snail? Or should I remove the snail and plants into a bucket of freshwater until the treatment is finished and I do a 100% water change – the instructions recommended a final 25% water change only. New fish owner, confused!I just want to add that both my orange Mickeys like to hang out near the water surface – I assume b/c the water quality is wretched due to lack of filter, all the medicine in the water? Also, the tap water in my area is so hard that I use bottling drinking water from the grocery store for water changes. I just changed 25% of the water last night when I added the 3rd dose of medicine. Although the instructions say to add a 4th dose tonight, should I do a 25% water change before I add the 4th dose anyway? API does not offer identical clear instructions on their Pro Series (10 powder packets) of Erythromycin. Or I’m an entire neurotic and should stick with being a plant owner and give up on fish, since all you have to do is remember to water plants every 3 days. Gah!

That is why it is always a good idea to have a quarantine tank. Do yourself a favor, go and get a cheap filter and a little rubbermaid(or similar) containter, total price will be about $ 20. Keep the filter linear on your main tank until you need to QT a fish, then you don’t have to worry astir damaging your current tank.And never ever change 100% of the water. Do several smaller water changes over a period of a few days to remove the medicine.

Answer by Omar A
yes there is a way, and its not called blue leds, its called moonlight lighting, it replicates the moonlight, and i think that the best and cheapest way to do this is to buy a electricity out put switch timer, so you can time when the moonlights come on and the LED day ones turn off. And that one says that it has three modes for it, so im sure there is a switch somewhere for it. :D hope i was a help
