Title: popeye not from spinach
Post by: vaudeville on March 01, 2012, 10:22:16 AM

 Hey Gang'
One of my male peacocks just come down with a extreme case of popeye (Cut Me Mick)
Any ideas on what to treat with
Does not look like it has gone thru two movies with Apollo Creed

Sorry for your fish. I have no idea how to treat it. However, you made me laugh!

IIRC - use myracin( sp?) 
It's expensive so you may want to use a hospital tank for treatment

I think Blair was trying to spell Maracyn.


I prefer Kanacyn.  They sell a bottle of the pure stuff at Wet Thumb for like $10.00.
