I need a little help. Yesterday I bought some feeders (I know, I know...) anyway now my German blue ram looks as follows. I added metroplex to the tank yesterday along with melafix and some aquarium salt. After I noticed the discus acting lethargic. They also wouldn't eat yesterday, today the discus are acting fine and my lone ram is eating and swimming around.

.10 ammonia
0 nitrite
5.0 nitrate

75 gal
10 guppies(fry)
7 discus
1 GBR
6 Cory
12 Ghost Shrimp

Thanks in advance for any help

I would definitely start by doing a good tank change to get the ammonia down to 0. Fish will recover much faster with perfect water conditions. Next, put a double dose of slime coat in the tank to help with recovery. Make sure the water conditions stay perfect and keep an eye on her..

I am of the opinion that usually guppies dont carry the same diseases to which a Chiclid would be suseptible to.
