My fish are dying and I'm not sure what to do.
75G FWFO - no plants
ammonia 0
Nitrites 0
Nitrates 60ppm
I've been doing PWC every 2-3 days to get Nitrates down. This is an old tank which has had high nitrates but the fish are new.
About a month ago, I bought some neons, 2 angels, 2 glofish, 5 rosy barbs and a catfish.
a day later, one of the angels was dead and stuck to the power head intake.
Within a week, both glofish lost their lower lip and stopped eating and died.
a few days after, I noticed white fuzz on the catfish and he stopped eating as well. I euthanized him as he looked really bad off.
A few days later, I noticed a couple neons had white spots and were looking sick too. Euthanized them too.
As of today, everything else looks healthy except today I came home with my female rosy barb laying dead at the bottom, no sign of disease...
I'm not sure what to do at this point.
I have 4 rosy barbs, 3 neons, a tetra ( not sure what ) and a baby angel.
I went back to the store today only to see the vast majority of their fish plagued with fin rot.
What am I supposed to do? Can I save the rest? Is my tank plagued and doomed?
