She is a german blue ram and she has lost almost all of her coloring, I am hoping its not too late for her. I attached a picture of the other female I have so you can see how drastic the color loss is.

Thats the exact thing that I am dealing with. I am running to petco tonight to get safe guard. I am going to try it out on my fish in the quarantine tank first since I know she has them and since its a bare bottom tank I willbe able to see how it is working.

Sorry about that, lets try this again.

What medication are you using? I have attached a picture of her in the quarantine tank. You cant really see but there are the tell tale red worms around the anus along with the color loss.

I have a german blue ram that started showing these red worms yesterday. She is currently in a ten gallon quarantine tank but from my reading I am pretty sure that I need to all of my tanks... I am going to try Safe-guard (fenbendazole without a prescription) Has anyone ever used it before? I...

Pretty sure its not just a small white spot, the tail was slighlty torn looking at the ens, like the begining of tail rot...

Thanks for the replies, I moved her to my ten gallon quarantine tank and dosed with melafix since I had it on hand. When I moved her I also noticed that she had a small white spot on her tail like a fungus so we will see tomorrow... Sent from my LG-LS970 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

I have a 55 gallon planted aquarium that is a community tank. My water readings are 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, 10 nitrate. I have two female german blue rams, one is completely colored and beautiful, the other is extremely pale and really shows no color. She is keeping her fins slightly cramped...

Thanks for the article, I have never heard of that. I think it may have been a bad batch of fish bevause I have not had any additional issues with them. I currentlt have two that are doing well. I will be adding more later on once the tank is done cycling,

I am picking up a new tank tonight and my head is spinning with possibilities! It is a 150 gallon aquarium 72" long 23" high (I believe the standard dimensions for this size). I currently have a planted 55 gallon so I am considering just moving everything over and increasing the numbers of my...

I have been looking for a large tank to turn into a discus tank and I finally found one on craigslist. It is a 150 gallon tank for 100 so I hate to pass on it. However I noticed in the pictures sent to me that there is cracking in the top plastic going around the tank. It is in the front and...

My pH is 7.6 the same as my other tanks. I dont have a test for the hardness, I will pick one up tomorrow.

I have a new tank, not yet cycled, and my cory cats are dropping like flies. I ended up with two apple snails, three ghost shrimp, a powder blue dwarf gourami, and one black skirt tetra after a family member had a bad experience with fish keeping... So I set up a 29 gallon that I had in my...

I currently have two freshwater aquariums (a 55 gallon planted community tank, and a 29 gallon community tank with silk pants). I am looking for a third project. I am thinking something larger... I was initially leaning towards salt water but the cost is not do-able for a few more years. Now...
