well i just came back up from a horrific columnaris/fungus treatment to the tank

BTW this might get long so go to the loo and get something to eat scratch that
you might lose your lunch after this post....


this morning may 26th i wake up to find a female guppy gutted (you still with me)
now what i mean by this is that her tummy was inside out she was to give birth soon as she was a bit big.

and on the top i seen another {yellow female gup} all beaten red marks on her body
with half tail gone she still has the lower portion of her tail but the top is to the flesh

now i recently added fish to the tank thee (big molloies??) not sure if and what they are thought they matched the small ones i got
but can i check if these are the culprits or do i need to get the worm police

i been inducing medicated food to my fish
and i feel like one or a few dropped a parasitic bomb
on me i seen one or a few drop what it is to be a white
string with what it looks like a bag attached to it

anyone?


what i got and had in the tank

48 gal tank 25x18x25
sun sun hw-303b
tetra air 100


*fair warning i know the stock of my tank*
1 clown loach
1 otto
1 BN pleco
2 albino cory
2 SAE
4 black neon tetras
7 black mollies? or Platties
4 guppies -- had 1 died and one is on a string cause of her tail

now i know the loach aint to be there just got him there for now
and will be keeping him till he gets to 8 inches as hes my population
control for the MTS i got in the tank just to save yall the trouble and
get to whats issue
 
Yup that's about it

The black ones look like mollys to me. Male mollys can be feisty but I do not see them ripping a fish to shreds. It is possible the fish died and was eaten or picked at afterwards. The white poop could indicate a parasite bt if they are on medicated food it could be that as well. Are their tummys all nice and full and round.
 
so the medicated food did its good work to rid the parasites right >?

and the white bomb of death came out huh

so what now i did a flush water change

prior parms were

A=0
no2=0
no3= 5
ph=7.5
 
idk why the LFS sold me the small ones as platties

i go to my CLFS and they sell them as mollies but they are bigger tho
so idk
 
some show that they are a bit full but i been feeding them every day one a day medicated food so they eat it quick
