Aquarium Advice Freak
EDIT: I've changed the title - 3 are dead, one is dying. What did it?
One of my juvi black angels (2") is having serious trouble. He's listless (sitting on the bottom, on plants, etc), having trouble maintaining his orientation (idling with his mouth straight up and doing "backflips"), and occasionaly seems to stop breathing for a few seconds. IMO, he's on death's door.
There are no visible signs of parasites/infection, he has good color (solid black, no fading), no fin damage, no ich, no spots, no dropsy, no nothing that I can see.
The source tank is my planted 120 - PH 6.4 (due to CO2 injection), KH 3, Ammonia 0, Nitrite 0, Nitrate 10 (just did a water change this morning), Temp 80.
I've moved him to the hospital tank (freshly filled, PH 7).
I'm about to head out the door to pick up some meds - I'll get a variaty of items I've seen discussed, but what should I use to treat this poor fella (assuming he's still alive when I get back)?
Thanks!
