OK we just lost a red zebra today, he was bloated looking and laying on the bottom a lot before he died. Now I'm seeing another one of my african cichlids itching his side on the bottom gravel (kinda swimming along and then twirling to slide his side against the gravel). Am I having a parasite problem? What do I need to do??? I'm assuming they're all going to get it. The zebra had a hole in his side by the time we found him (he was only left alone for 8 hours) so who knows if they ate the insides or what, but now another one is acting itchy... HELP
