1~What type of fish is afflicted? In addition, please describe what is wrong with the fish to the best of your ability (i.e. cotton like growth, bloated, etc.).
I have 4 angelfish juveniles. My veiltail angel fish has suddenly stopped eating for the past 2 days. He is otherwise healthy and behaving normally. All the other angels continue to eat. The affected fish seems interested in the food but will spit out the very few bites he takes.
2~What are your tank parameters (ammonia, nitrites, nitrates, temp, pH)? Please give exact values.
Ammonia-0, Nitrites-0, Nitates-5, temp-80, pH-7.3
3~ How large is the tank? How long has the tank been set up?
It's a 60 gallon and been set up a year.
4~What type of filtration are you using? Please give the name and number (i.e. Fluval 304) and amount of gph if known.
I currently use a double biowheel marineland 400gph, I also have a marineland canister 350gph.
5~How many fish are in the tank? What kinds of fish are they and what are their current sizes?
I have 1 blood parrot(4in), 4 angels(1.5in), 5 danios, 3 guppies, 2 mollies, 3 ghost catfish, 2 apples snails, 1 mystery snail
6~When is the last time you did a water change and vacuum the gravel? How often do you do this? How much water do you remove at a time?
I usually do 80% water change every 5-7 days. I have sand and clean the surface well each week.
7~How long have you had the fish? If the fish is new, how did you acclimate it/them?
I have had the angel fish 2.5 months.
8~Have you added anything new to the tank--decor, new dechlorinator, new substrate, etc.?
Nothing new has been added
9~What kind of food have you been feeding your fish, have you changed their diet recently?
No new changes. I feed frozen blood worms, frozen carnivore mix, and flakes
I've done a little research on my own and I suspect wasting disease but all of my other fish are unaffected.
