Tank:
85 gallons, but 15 gallons is a filtration system.
It been running for about 2 years
It has a filter and a heater
I keep it at about 80 degrees
I have 5 mono argentus and a green spotted puffer
Maintenance:
I do water changes about once every other week and I take out about 20% and
I vacuum the substrate.
Parameters:
Nitrite: 0
Nitrate: 0
pH: 8.4
Feeding
Every night, with one or two fast days in a week
I use Tetra and I don't know the name of my frozen bloodworms.
I feed frozen blood worms and Mysis shrimp and I feed freeze-dried baby shrimp. I also occasionally feed live foods such as flys.
Illness & Symptoms
I've had her for about a year and a half.
I first noticed symptoms a little over two weeks ago.
She can not swim properly, she is stuck at the bottom of the tank either belly up or on her side. She does not want to eat.
I treated her with boiled peas for about 5 days to try and get rid of any compaction, and then I have been treating her with bacterial infection treatment for about a week. I have also been given two doses of antiparasitic medication. Her appearance color-wise has remained the same, as well as her energy levels. She just won't eat and can't swim.
Explain your emergency situation in detail.
She was fine one evening when I went to bed and when I woke up she was at the bottom and unable to swim. There were no previous signs leading up to her being unable to swim. I have googled and tried everything I have found to treat her and nothing is working. Since she refuses to eat and can't swim I am very scared she is going to die soon if I cannot find more treatment for her.
