Turned out it was too late, the last guppy gradually sank itself to the bottom and hid to die. I found her this morning dead.   So all of my guppies have died, but the other fish seem ok. Ill continue this treatment path and then put carbon in the filter.   Thanks for your help!

Thanks, the problem is finding the darn stuff. I don't think its easy to get here and if I order online it could be too late... :(

Well the guppy with the white patch has died and the other has more red on her now. I think it is septicemia, I still have a few days before i can try something else.   I looked at Kanamycin, which seems the best option for hemorrhagic septicemia with internal bleeding. I can't treat with anti...

Sadly the Guppy with the white, fluffy spot is having problems keeping balance.- Worse than in the pictures now. Perhaps she has also developed swim bladder problem, shes struggling to swim up right and has sunk further down the tank.   The other Guppy isn't looking any better either now...

I carried out a water change today and admitted the second dose of the medication.   Any idea how I should do water changes with this medication? The levels ammonia, nitrite and nitrate are good and everything else is stable, but should I be changing water daily even though I am medicating?  ...

The Guppy that gave birth is swimming all day on its own in the top left corner of the tank. She has a red ulcer on her body, redder gills and anal area than usual.   The other guppy also has red gills, but has a white fluffy spot on the body(edge of his gill). He is acting more normally, but is...

Okay I thought I'd update, I treated the fish yesterday, so looking to repeat the treatment on Saturday as it advises on the bottle. I also have purchased more aquarium salt to top up with the water changes.   To our surprise today (i was just monitoring one of the guppies) and suddenly it gave...

Thanks again guys.   The tank was previously a Goldfish tank for two years, so its not new.   The levels are now 0, but I am still having problems. - Today another Ghost Catfish has gone missing, I assume dead. I wonder if he died because of the treatment and salt I had to add to the tank...

I forgot to mention that their feces is stringy and white, is this a sign of either?   Thanks for the advice.

  I just spotted another white mark on the other guppies side too. It looks fuzzy, but also like an ulcer attached to the body. I can't be sure if its fungus or an ulcer :(     Since I own a bottle, I started treatment of Interpet Anti Internal Bacteria No. 9 but I am not certain whether it is...

Sadly its not looking so good for the guppy with the damaged fin, it seems a white spot has started to grow near her fin:     Videos of her too:   http://youtu.be/SSL5PoMy_kY   http://youtu.be/NUyHhJFdYI0   Could this be a bacterial infection or fin rot or something?

The water quality seems good in there now, yet the fin seems to be damaged whilst it was good.   I can't seem to get the water any better than it is, ammonia, nitrite reads the same as the tap water and I treat new water with fresh start on changes also.   I am keeping an eye on the levels and...

I didn't take that into consideration, how can I define between a nip and an infection/burn. It is just a piece of her side fine that has gone.   Any advice on the other questions? I feel really bad for my fish, want to make sure they have the best chance from now on.

Woke up today and found one of the guppies to have a nipped fin, I guess it was the other guppy that did it.

Here are the videos of my tank.

Just as an update, I have been doing daily water changes for a period of a week and the fish are looking much better.   I think the tank is now cycling, tests are showing Ammonia as low as it shows Tap Water and Nitrite as 0. Nitrate varies between 30 and 40.   Part of the problem I was having...

One of the weather loaches I have held in the same tank for a few years now, beforehand it was a Goldfish tank and he was in there then (coldwater). I have since heated it to 22'c and turned tropical.   The second loach I purchased just before the rest, she was in a tropical tank at the store. I...

Thanks for your help! Sorry, I thought comic sans was clear.   The two Guppy's I mentioned died. The first naturally, but the other followed the pattern of the first and was upside down at the bottom of the tank again.I decided it was best to humanely euthanise her.   On top of those two, I also...

Tank size: 34L Link pH: 7.5 ammonia: 1 ppm (4 ppm two days ago) nitrite: 1 ppm (0 two days ago) nitrate: 5 ppm (30 this morning) (0 two days ago) kH: N/A - I don't have a test for these. gH: N/A tank temp: 22 'c (I have it colder than usual for the weather loaches)   I am testing twice daily at...
