Hey guys, yesterday i decided to do my parasite treatment for one of my tanks, i never used the jungle tabs before. I did a 25% water change today but it seems like none of the fish want to eat. Now is that normal, should i do the second half of the treatment Thursday or should i just do another partial water change and add the carbon back?

What kind of parasites are you treating? Try soaking their food in garlic or using live foods. How long since they have eaten?

its internal parasites, i was doing it as a preventative, its at least a day maybe a day and a half. I always soak their silversides and shrimp in garlic. Am i being overdone? I just lost a whole tank (with the exception of my dragon wrasse) of fish maybe im just acting too soon.

You never want to medicate unless you absolutely have to. It can cause more negative effects than good.
