We have had 4 blue glofish for 2 years now. We have had no problems. About a month ago we added two sucker fish. One of the sucker fish died. Then I noticed my largest glofish started getting white spots and not eating as much. Researched and found the that it was probably bacterial. Treated it with malachite green. Which I realize now was probably a mistake and why I should have not used Google. I have cleaned the tank because tonight we lost the biggest glo fish (Big Jimmy) we buried him in the snow for my 8 year old son. He is Autistic and loves these fish. He is heart broken. Worse yet the other fish are still not acting right and I don't know what else to do. All of the levels are okay. The water has been changed. Is there anything else I can do to help save these fish? They are all at the top of the tank.

I know this is an old post but I noticed no one replied. I can’t really see anything because the blue light washes everything out. Are the fish still around. Are they ich spots? Have you tested water parameters? Being at the surface could be signs of ammonia or chlorine in the water or low oxygen.
