Can anyone tell me what this is and how to treat it? I know the pix are horrible, I'm sorry I can't seem to get better.
A bit of back story. Over the past 2 months I've had a lot of fish death in my tank and haven't been able to figure out why. Every death seems a bit different though all have my fish acting strange before they die. Hiding, not really eating and not being active.
I know water had been good, I've been testing like crazy and nothing has changed. I've lost 5 rasbora, 1 gourami, 4 platy ad 2 neons. I had an outbreak of fin rot with my platies about half way through the deaths. It knocked out 3 of my 4 platies but they were acting strange as well before and even though I treated with melifix as soon as I noticed some slightly jagged fins they died with in 48 hours.
My angel is usually very active, he greets me at the surface and is always ready to eat. The moment he sees anyone in the room he comes to the front and is ready to greet you. The last few days he's hiding a lot. In the back near my heater behind some driftwood and decor. Basically where you see him above. He isn't eating. He's come to the surface a few times(though not for the past 2 days) like he was going to and then just looks at it and goes away.
Any idea? I really have no idea what to do right now. Is there something I can treat with? I love this guy and would hate to loose him too. Also worried about the few remaining neons I have of course too. There are 3 and while they are acting a bit strange I'm not sure if that is simply because they are feeling the effects of the rest of the school being gone.
