Dette skriver Practical Fish keeping i denne månedens nyhetsbrev:

"Dear Reader,

Ever wondered why Dwarf gouramies are so difficult to keep alive these days? They've been pretty ropey for at least a decade, but new reports from readers have suggested that things have become even worse. Symptoms suggest bacterial infection, but treatment is rarely successful.

I had previously suspected that the indiscriminate use of antibiotics was to blame - this is a big problem in the fish world. However, we can now exclusively reveal that the culprit may be a virus called DGIV. Like other viruses, this one's virtually impossible to detect and there's no cure. But, worse still, it has already spread to other species. Some 22% of Dwarf gouramies tested carried the virus."

Så det der... Skumle greier, tror egentlig at vi vil få se mer og mer av slike tilfeller der plutselig store deler av fiskebestanden stryker med uten at noen behandlig hjelper.

Men hva skal man gjøre, virus har alltid eksistert, og er noe dritt Men det blir i alle fall ikke dvergguramier fremover på meg!
