Dead Snow White

Stargazee · Jul 10, 2020

My Mbuna was dead when I awoke this morning. Yesterday was acting a bit weird and towards the top. Ammonia 0, Nitrite 0, nitrates 10ppm, PH 7.8, temp 79, weekly water changes, 50 gal with 12 fish, feed north fin veggie, repashy, cucumbers, zucchini, peas. I took a pic. Have no idea how it died. It's about over a year old.

it's pretty skinny.
were the fins chewed up before or did that happen after it died?

did it have stringy white poop during the last 2 weeks?

My guess is parasite or white poop

is there something else in the tank?

Fins happened after. No stringy white poop.

Sorry about your fish, could you describe what you mean by "acting a bit weird"?
