We have had 6 cherry barbs for about two or three months now and they have grown really well. Over the past couple of weeks two have died and I think another two are on the way out. They seem to lose their ability to swim and where the tail joins the body looks bent almost.
We have a fully stocked 45g tank, and do 25% water change weekly, our ammonia is 0, nitrite 0 and nitrate usually between 5-10.
None of our other fish are affected, so could it just be genetic or should I treat the tank for parasites etc?
