Fish disease case nr. 109 Oranda lionhead redcap with tubercles (most likely fish tuberculosis)

Dear fish keeper, today again about Oranda oronda lion heads, a very popular fish in my case, 109, yes, we are making progress. 109 cases already discussing the problems we encounter in fish diseases. So I will show you my, my findings in with the help of my PowerPoint. In this case, 109 is an Oranda lion head red cap with tubercles. And the tubercles most likely are caused by Mycobacterium, which is also called fish tuberculosis. Here we see the red cap saranda suffering. They are hanging at the surface. Some are doing very well, not showing many any specific signs. But it's always very few that die. Or look at this one who is dead. But you see the ones separating from the group. And some are getting bloated, getting dropsy, some getting skinny. Many different signs to express this disease. But important that you do a good examination and examine the guilt tissue, the skin and the internal organs. And that's what we did to find what was going on in this group of red cap orandas. And here, like this picture shows very badly damaged gills due to bacterial infection. And you see also the bloody bleeding, hemorrhagic lesions in the gills might be caused in this case, like our findings will show, by a bacterial infection. So that's why the fish will of course die from suffocation from very pneumonia gills, infected gills that are not working properly. And the main thing we found was internally that organs like the liver and the spleen had a big load of tubercles. And not much healthy tissue was left of the spleen or here of the liver. Here we show again the liver with many, many tubercles, taking away healthy liver tissue. And those are encapsulated colonies of bacteria. Here, look at this head kidney. The head kidney had hardly any healthy tissue left. And that's why the gills getting very stressed, because the gills take over the activity of the kidneys. So they have to be more active in excreting also the ureum and the area and pneumonia. See here, that's the other, the other kidney, the main kidney also having a massive load of tubercles. So yes, you have to inform the supplier that this breeder is doing a bad job in breeding this kind of line red cap lion heads, the bad fish should be removed and put to sleep because they will not be cured by any treatment. You can use narcomorpolis from aquarium muenster and maybe some of the fish are less affected and they could survive for a long time. Yes, we see that happening. They can survive for weeks or years. Even so we don't know because that's. You don't see what's happening internally. Ask your fish doctor for a trial with an antimicrobacteria medication. There are some that people tried, but the results, in my experience are usually very poor. The best thing is to take good care, good water quality, good food. I would recommend to feed with our Dr. Basler biffish food Fuko. Because the Fuko idone which is used here in that functional food helps the fish in coping with a bacterial infection and surviving. And at least feed it for several months. And meanwhile no other food. Only this. You better be more successful with the other. Or under red caps which are alive. Read my books, which are available in different languages. Here are the two English books where I talk about goldfish and the risks. You can have as kind of disease with the goldfish and become a specialist. Try to follow all my cases on my Patreon channel. Also a specific fish disease diagnosis classes I'm giving there. So maybe it's something for you. Something for you to become a specialist and to become a good fish keeper and taking care of your fish. Thank you for watching.
