Hi do you have any pictures - close ups are good.

Also what are your tank specs - ammo, nitrite etc.

More info the better.

my ph level is fine i have done a nitite test and it comes out fine i have no pic but they have white spots on bodies and fins and the fins are rotting away with cotton wool like growths. i have also lost 3 more since last post. i dont think they will live! if they dont i will do many 50%water changes over the next 2 weeks and keep treating the water for the fungus and just start again

How big is your tank? You seemed to have an awful lot of fish in the tank so may be worth giving the measurements so that you can be advised about stocking so you don't end up in the same situation again

Yeah, tank specs also please give the actual readings for ammonia and nitrite. Sounds like you are quite frustrated. How old is this tank?

Sorry about that. Sometimes things just go really wrong.

tank spec is 3ft x 1ft x 1.5ft all fish were babies only been in there about a month had tank set up for around 2 months.
i only have a nitrite and ph level tester, nitrite vial just turns clear which means there is none in there i have a fluval 104 external filter.
i must admit i di overload and didnt listen, wish i did now
