Teracycline is an antibiotic that is not commonly available to hobbyist
Usage should be applied to targeted bacteria or viral infections. Generally not ideal for parasites or bugs Improper usage would result in organisms with immunity against Teracycline

i usually give 1 capsule tetracycline when my aro sick. i dilute in water first then put in 100.45.45 cm tank, turn heater on 32 degree Celsius. pump off, only aerator flow, wc 20-30% every two days, observe the developent..usually it works for my aro when fungus attack or recently, scales looks like bleeding..tetracycline is basically antibiotic for human skin, but can be use as medication for fish..

I am sorry to see your loss, i just joined. If early , i could advise you to check your water p.h. Low p.h will kill your arowana. Try to kept some blood parrots together because blood parrots are very sensitive on p.h run down. If parrot fish started to park one side with less movement. Pls use p.h test pen to check the water. Confirmed low, do not panicked. Just put sea coral into a net bag and placed under the running water. It will take 1~2 days to recovered.

Correct p.h is around 6.5 or more. If 2~3 p.h level it will kill even goldfishes.
