I quarantined her and treated her/him with Maracyn 2 but it was too late. She/he was never holding babies. Other fish have been holding and we have Mbuna at several stages of life. Should I treat the entire tank...if a bacteria is in all of them? It is a well established tank and biological...

The fish is dead so no need to reply.....but does anyone know how to contact a fish vet in the AR area?

Can someone help diagnose this fish, she's not eating and has a white growth and a red sore. We do have a pleco she could have got scratched by but do not think that's it. She is not eating and all water parameters are normal.

I would not give them cruciferous vegetables. Instead I would try zucchini, cucumber or peas. You can do spinach or lettuce although mine do not eat the lettuces. I also use Repashi and put cucumber, peas and zucchini.

I have a Kenyi Mbuna with free swimming fry in a fry tank. They are swimming but are still going in and out of the mother's mouth. Is it time to move the mama back to the regular tank or should I give her a few days to recover and be with the fry?

Colin: I treated with general cure, vacuumed, did the water changes, repeated. That orange fish got worse and worse and still ate. Then she swelled up like a balloon, face everything (see pics). Then 2 days later she stopped eating and died. Do you think this is an internal bacterial infection then?

Thank you! I have white crushed coral sand....should I vacuum it or throw it out and replace?

Mbunas though? They are suppose to vegetarians!

The poop looks normal except occasionally I see long white feces in the tank. They do not bloat up before they die.

At 1 point I was putting General Cure with their food. I have some on hand and could try dosing the whole tank with that.

I have been losing a fish every couple of months. I have 9 mbuna fish left (previously a chaos tank but do not want to introduce any more fish until this is solved), and a pleco in a 55 gallon with a FluvalSmart 706. I have 3 plants and barely any nitrates, 0 nitrites, 0 ammonia, ph 8.2. I...

Yes posting now.

Could you possibly take a look at my fish and let me know if you think mine have TB or something else? I thought mine had it but now perhaps not.

I disagree, I think it is fish TB.

Can someone identify this worm? It was on the side of my tank above the water level on the glass. It was moving.

One pleco and all the rest are Mbunas. 11 other Mbunas.

Fins happened after. No stringy white poop.

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...

Uhhh Haps need more than veggies...I thought I had all veggie eaters!!!!!

The fish is about 3.75” in a 35 gallon Mbuna tank. If it’s a hap, we need to get a bigger tank and I’m already thinking a 75 but with the mbunas they need chaos tank. I do regular water changes as in 1/2 once every two weeks and 1/3 2x a week with Anubis plants in the tank and a FluvalSmart...

Hey guys I have had this particular fish for a year and can not classify it. I know all my other fish but what is this?
