I just got three of them on 3/9 so they're fairly new. For a long while they hid in this piece of coral that had tubes, and would rarely come out. I'd only ever see one or maybe two at a time, so I know they weren't getting much food in there.
Last night the first died, it's gills were red an inflamed, and it's body was bent badly to the side. Also the other loaches looked very thin and lethargic.
Today another loach is bent and sort of "float/swimming." I've recently changed my substrate if that matters. Here are my tank params as of last night:
kH: 25 mg/L (needs buffed?) Buffering refers to this right?
GH: 280 ppm (very very hard)
Ammonia: .25 ppm
Nitrite 0
pH: 7.2
Nitrate 7ppm
Any Idea what it might be. About 2 weeks ago it looked like they had ich so I've been doing the high temp treatment for a while now.
All the other fish seem fine, (though my one female krib seems lazy). Any ideas?
