Help! Live Bearers Giving Birth, Tank Is Being Treated With Melaf

[Jade2672]

My tank is suffering with Pop Eye, and I have newborn fish appearing amongst the weed.

I have been treating the tank with Melafix since Thursday (I did a 50% water change and removed all carbon first), and due to give another dose now, but I don't know if this will affect the babies?

I cannot identify the mother.

The LFS is constantly engaged, and all other FS are shut (as you guessed @ this time of night).

Do I continue to treat the tank, or do I stop treating and risk Pop Eye increasing


ALL ADVICE WELCOME!

Can you move the sick fish to a quarantine tank and treat there?

Same. It would be best to move the sick fish though...
