About a week ago I brought home a a baby bristlenose pleco from petco, I didnt notice anything wrong with him and I was watching him for a day, I also added in a piece of cholla wood, the next two days I noticed my betta fish developing white spots on him and he started looking horrible. I acted quick, looked up every disease guide I could, and in short term notice all I could purchase was Super Ich Cure from Petco. I was 3 or 4 days in, with temp set to 85-86.
Well unfortunately my betta fish has since passed, the baby bristlenose also died a day later, and now Im noticing these spots on another pleco I have and its getting worse as the day goes by as well as a long cut on his underside. It seems like its not working and i dont know what to do.
I typically change 25-50% of the water each week depending on how dirty it is and am constantly cleaning the filter.
Ammonia 0.0
nitrites 0.0
nitrates 5.0
