Sounds too familiar - I am having the same problem as cpfarhood.
I had five zebra danios, one serpae tetra, and six black phanton tetras in my cycled 58
gal for nearly a month. I was performing 10
gal water changes weekly. Everyone was very happy.
Water params:
NH3=0,
NO2=0,
NO3=5ppm, temp=78F
Then I added five more serpaes and all hell broke loose.
.
I know, I know, I should have quarrantined the new additions,
but my 10
gal Q tank is not yet cycled (I'm going with a fishless cylcle) and the Serpaes had been at my trusted
lfs for several weeks with no apparent illness.
I noticed a moderately bad case of ich on the black phantoms first. I started 20
gal water changes every day and standard dose treatment with Formalin-3. Three days into treatment, the Serpaes showed mild signs of ich. It's been a week and the ich is almost gone in all but a few serpaes. However, I have noticed fin rot on nearly all the tetras (at first, I thought it was just some fin nipping). The danios appear fine.
I still have another week of ich treatment with the formalin-3. Should I wait until then to add something like Mela-Fix, or should I treat the finrot more aggressively? Three of the new serpaes have both ich and finrot and they are not eating.
