I've had a number of powder blue dwarf gouramis -- I think they're absolutely beautiful fish. However, I've lost every single one, and before they died they all developed ulcers on their heads, above their eyes and down their snout. Anyone have any idea what's up with this? None of my other fish have ever had ulcers of any type, so I wonder if the breed is particularly prone to ulcers? I tried Maracyn, but the fish died anyway. Probably by the time the ulcers are showing, whatever disease or bacteria or parasite involved has advanced to the point where treatment is not an option.
Are ulcers related to water quality, such as hardness or softness, or pH?
