Hello,
I have a 120L planted tank with some black widow tetras, corries, zebra danios and a pleco. One of the black widow tetras had its fin near the anus rotting and rotted so much that it started bleeding. I went and bought SERA baktopur and treated it and things went better until it was infected with fungus. So I begun treatment with ectopur,costapur and mycopur. The problem is that nothing changes and the poor fish is still infected with fungus. Water conditions are good and I also add SERA fishtamins. Might it be the problem that SERA's products are not strong enough to help out the sittuation? I was never able to treat a disease and now that I am trying as hard as ever its still not working. I dont measure my water parameters. I used to but not now. My tank is fully planted, I do regulat water changes once a week, I use fish vitamins, water dechlorifiers and the fish seem to thrive in these conditions.
Should I treat the fungus first or the bleeding or both?
Should I continue treating the mane tank just to prevent diseases?
What temperature should the quarantine tank be?
Is it too late for the poor fish? Its been nearly a week!
What other suggestions do you have?
PS: I am treating the whole of the tank so that the disease will not spread.
Regards,
John.
