Aquarium diseases:
Diseases occur in the home aquarium often and when they do, it is our duty as
fishkeepers to ensure that the symptoms and the actual illness is treated along
with the root problem which caused the illness in the first place.
Usually the problem is caused by poor water quality and that is why when a
fish becomes ill it is vital to check all water parameters.
If water quality if found to be at fault then steps should then be taken to correct
whatever has caused the issue be that insufficient filtration, an overstocked
aquarium, poor fishkeeping habits or any of the many reasons that water
quality can deteriorate.
Only once the underlining cause has been determined and fixed is it that we
look at treating the symptoms and the secondary illness that has manifested in
the form of parasitic, bacterial or biological illnesses.
