Is Okay. I have a 50 gallon aquarium. With 4 male guppies 8 female guppies 3 rosy tetras 5 glolight tetras and 1 mickey mouse platy. The platy is not doing good right now at all. He is flashing and mostly stays at the corner of my tank by a fake log. He does come out and swim sporadically and then darts right back to the log. Unless there is food then he eats. My water quality is great. No ammonia, no nitrite, nitrates are at almost 10 but that's still not bad and my pH is at I'd say from my api color chart it is between a 7.0 and a 7.2. All my other fish in the aquarium are fine. I recently had my other mickey mouse platy die from ich but he has very visible white spots and a tagged tail. I treated the tank and not long after treating the tank the fish with ich died. But now, a week later after the other mickey mouse fish died the one that is still alive is acting funny. There is no sign of illness besides the weird stuff he does against rocks and the way he just hides and doesn't move much. But no cloudy eyes, no spots or anything. No ragged tail. I don't know what I'd going on. My fish were not quarantined and most were added at the same time. I have had this tank set up for about a half a year now. I also have a 35 gallon set up with baby guppies. If I can make sure everything is okay I'd like to separate my male and female guppies but I need to get my large tank safe before I start moving any of them.
