10-15 june, i observed a strange behavior on my fish, so i decided to start the ich treatment thru temperature rise.
16-19 june, the temp raised slowly from 76F to 88F
20 june, temp = 88F (NH=0 NO2=0 NO3=5 water clean and clear)
21 june anti parasitical (external) treatment
22-24 jun 3 fish died (1 black moli, 1 guppy, 1 silver moli)
24 jun T=88F NH=0.1 NO2=0.2 NO3=10
28 jun, ICH treatment (jungle labs ich clear)
29 jun PWV 30% (all conditions pristine NO3=5)
29 jun, loss 3 neons
30 jun, ICH treatment round 2
1 jul,
-- PWC 60%, -- Fungus clear (from jungle labs)all water conditions pristine NO3=5-10
2 jul,
-- PWC 90%, (morning)
-- re-inserted the sponges from the fridge into the filter
-- experiencing a small cycle
-- fish look better
-- PWC 50% (afternoon)
3 jul
-- PWC 50% (morning)
-- all tests are perfect
what should i do?
stop trying new medication?
stop the ICH treatment thru heat?
get all the fish out in another tank?
because after each treatment 2=3 more fish show the same symptomes
phase 1 round belly, like they ate a LOT
phase 2 (after 2-3 days) belly goes from concave to convex, fish stops eating, flashing against gravel
phase 3 (after 7-10 more days) fish shows disorientation, very fast breathing, flashing from time to time,
phase 4 (after 1-2 days) fish stops moving at all, breathes VERY slow, then dies ... all in 12 hours
