Aquarium Advice Apprentice
Quick background. I have a female emerald that has a sickness that i am hoping you guys can help me diagnose
I first noticed it about 5 weeks ago when she was not swimming around the tank much and kinda just swam near the top (always an active eater though). Looking at her i noticed she has these dark spots (see attached photo) and i have noticed she sometimes has what i believe to be mucus coming from her scales (not all the time though). None of my other fish have these symptoms.
I placed her in a QT to give her some meds. I first tried the recommended amount of E.M Erythromycin. I have not noticed a change. Next i noticed she has stringy like poop so i tried to do the recommended amount of General Cure. Still nothing so i tried this treatment again. She has been in the QT for 3 weeks so far and i haven’t noticed a change.
She still eats. Swims around a bit more but the QT is 10G so theres not much for her to do. I have not noticed her poop in about a week. She is not bloated however. Any ideas?
