Gerald Bassleer launches Fish Doctoring, a Patreon channel with case-based videos on fish diseases. He covers naked-eye and microscopic observations, gill and organ pathology, parasite identification, and treatments drawn from cases collected over five to ten years, including hole-in-the-head, Malawi bloat, and Oodinium on Betta.
Chapters
Hello, thank you for watching this video because I will try to explain in a few minutes the meaning of my fish disease cases that I will present via Patreon. To see fish disease cases, it means you want to learn how a diseased fish looks like. Not only when looking at it in the aquarium with our naked eyes, but you understand that a microscope will help you to see the real problems occurring on a fish. I also will show the pathological deformations on the gills and on the organs. I show you the parasites and also will make suggestions what you can do as a treatment. And I hope this will educate you to be a better fish care keeper. All the things I can present you are my cases I found in the last five to 10 years. And I collected the material and I will present it in short videos. You also will have opportunity to learn more about fish disease, do specific training courses. Training courses about how to prevent fish diseases, how to determine what bacteria or parasite is having an impact on our fish. So all these kind of things is a kind of interesting tool that I can present on the Internet. It's more difficult to present it in a book. Well, this you could see as an extension of all the books I presented in the past as a learning tool. Because due to the lack of opportunities for traveling, it is possible that we can give you education through the Internet and through this opportunity here, becoming a patron to my creator channel. So I wish you good luck and I hope to be a part of the schooling system I present here. Thank you. The fish doctrine I will present is about the cases of fish diseases with a lot of video material, microscopic observations. And I can give you suggestions for treatment which is important for you that the fish survive and do better and you are more happy. As a fish keeper, I also give an advanced training learning of fish health management. And this I hope to present you with many opportunities. I can give you with all the material I collected. Like this case. A fanthil hanging at the surface. Why swimming upside down? And a poor balance. The case of hole in the head disease, A syndrome, a damage of the lateral line. And because it's not one specific disease in freshwater and marine fish. The Malawi bloat. Look at the protruded anus, the big belly. The fish are suffering, lethargic, they die. I will give you the tricks how to cure the discus pest. A typical symptom and behavior with extra mucus hanging at the bottom at the surface. Usually when new fish are introduced from different sources and explain you all these things in cases I will present to you the case of the skinny dying cardinal tetra in a fish tank. Why? Well, I can tell you and explain you in a nice case study what the reason could be. Also the case of a dying goldfish. Respiration is bad, it's getting skinny and the fish is dying. But the owner had 10,000 goldfish, so he wanted to make sure that the problem is detected. The case of Oodinium on a male Betta. A very common problem in our Betta fish. I will give you the tricks, how to examine fish and how to treat. So you want to learn more, Please subscribe on my patreon.com Gerald Basler and to become a fish specialist. Thank you.
