Greetings all -
New member here.
I have a 38 gallon tank, Nitrite - 0% Ammonia - 0% Nitrate - approx 20ppm Ph = 7.4
I feed these fish every other day alternating with frozen brine shrimp and flake
The residents in the tank are
3 Harlequin Rasboras
2 Black Phantom Tetras
1 Gold Dojo
1 chinese Algae eater
1 Pictus catfish
1 gold marble Angel.
Had an issue around Jan with Ick and the tank chemistry went haywire. Lost a number of fish during that time. I believe I have the tank balanced but the Angel fish is not well. About 6 weeks ago it started swimming erratically and then stayed at the bottom of the tank. I took it out and put it in a breeders pen floating in the tank. It mostly lays on it side occasionally coming to the surface. I treated the tank with Melafix with no results. My store recommended Kanaplex still no results. The Angel still eats and after 6 weeks is no worse or better. Is there anything else I can try?
Thanks in advance
 
Have you tried aquarium salt? If they are still eating that is a good sign. Aquarium salt is usually what I try before anything else. Good luck.
