Aquarium Advice Regular
hey there,
I really need some advice. My 30x12x15inch tank has been suffering from some sort of disease. I've lost 6 fish in a week. I asked for advice from my LFS and they told me it was gill flukes. The fish that have this 'mysterious disease' have rapid gill movement. One day they're fine, the next they're breathing fast. They eat on the 1st day but then they lose their appetite. Within a few days they are dead. So far i've lost 2angelfish, a cory, a clownloach and a gold ram. The gold ram was slightly different however. When I found her dead this morning she had a very bloated belly which was very red/pink.
At the moment im treating my tank with Sterazin(antiparasite)to get rid of the gill flukes, if there are any that is. I've been treating it for 6days now and it has 2 treatments left.
Please help me, I don't want to lose all my fish!
