Hi,
I have a 46 gallon tank that had 8 tiger barbs and 1 rainbow shark and over the past few days all of the tiger barbs died off. They started out by not schooling and just hanging out at the bottom of the tank then one by one went to the top of the tank breathing very fast before dieing or being put to sleep by me. I do reg water changes and tanks water quality was all normal ( using the dip sticks)
Only the rainbow is left and even he doesnt seem normal. I want to try and save him I picked up a 10 gallon tank to use as a hospital but I would like to know why they died so I can learn from it. Ive had them since Septemeber with no problems until recently. I will attach a few pictures. Some have red spots and some did not.
