Hi, I have a blue african cichlid who is breathing heavily toward the bottom of the tank and not moving, though I can see he is alive. He appears to have some red discoloration on his fin. Is this fin rot or some other disease? Could it be contagious? Please see the attached picture. Any help would be much appreciated.
This is a 55gal tank with approx 15 african cichilids. Nitrite and ammonia are zero. Nitrate is approx 15ppm. I'm going to do a 30-40% water change now but don't know if there is any help for this fish. Please help!
