Aquarium Advice FINatic
Hello All,
I have a 25 Gallon Fluval Accent tank with a breeding pair of German Blue Rams, Neon Tetras, Glolight Tetras (not the blacklight kind), Clown Pleco and nerite snails in it. It is also planted and has been running for 2 years now. A few weeks ago I added a few tetras so there was enough for them to school. Before I did that I had them in a quarantine tank for 3 weeks and I had treated them with Paraguard and Prazipro separately.
Not long after I put them in the main tank everybody started flashing. I noticed that two tetras had one white spot on their soft dorsal fins on top each. I immediately thought, "Oh no here we go again this is ich."
So I immediately treated the tank first with Prazipro for 10 days (two treatments in that span). Next I raised them temperatures to 86 degrees and started Paraguard. Everyday (except for one day) I did 30-50% water changes. It has been one week now since that started and the spots are still there and have been there for two weeks now. The fish are still flashing including the Rams. The Rams are healthy enough to lay eggs though which I find odd. Also only two fish have had the white spots this whole time, the tetras.
I am really stressed out because I am doing everything in my power to fix this and I can't do it. Not to mention I have a Honey Gourami in the quarantine tank waiting. What should I do?
