I didn't use transome,just take it off from its finnage. Just add a air stone in, i think is fine now.

wah bro..so brave ah..i think next time you should not do that stunt. i also wanted to do that last time but i went for medication.
bringing fish out of water is already stress related and your aro might trash itself and injured itself, a hard knock or fall can be fatal.. moreover they are very slippery.

congrats on taking out the anchor worm BUT have u "wipe out" anchor worms in different stages(which u cant see)??

thats why medication is still the best solution, moreover Dimilin does not harm cultivated BB or affect your water parameters bro..

good luck
