Hello all, I have a 10 gallon tank
4 White Cloud minnows
10 RCS
1 zebra snail
1 amano shrimp

Parameters
Ph 7.1
Ammonia 0
Nirite 0
Nitrate 25

Wondering what's wrong with this wcmm, the rest are fine but just noticed today this one had a black spot and is slightly bloated

It could be from the nitrites. Did you cycle the tank? It almost looks like some type of internal damage possible from the nitrites. Do a 50% water change to keep the nitrites low for a few days. If that's what caused it then hopefully he will improve.
 
Yeah I did a water change yesterday I hope its not a parasite thank you!

My white cloud turned out to be pregnant so I left it in the main tank until releasing the eggs. Now I have 3 newly hatched wcmm but the other 3 adult minnows are showing signs of bloating as well now:// how do I cure them? I'm pretty sure its an internal parasite

You can purchase a medicated food that treats a variety of things. This will give you a good chance at getting whatever it is
 
Cool thanks! Do you know what it is called?
