Can some one offer advice on waht it may be and how to treat please?
I think we have a similar problem to shelahfishface <a href="http/www.fishforums.net/index.php?showtopic=289556" target="_blank">http/www.fishforums.net/index.php?showtopic=289556</a>
A couple of our clown loach and a tetra or two had what appeared to be white spot, so we ran a couple of treatments, with carbon and water changes and a few weeks in between. We did a couple as the first treatment seemed to clear most of it, except for one of the clowns.
A blotchy 'Spot'
A very skinny 'Noobie' and blotchy Spot
In the mean time our anicstrus fry hatched out, so we moved them to a fry tank.
Unfortunately we lost a few ancistrus fry to a nitrite spike but the rest seemed really healthy and got over it.
The anicstrus fry are in a fry tank with no substrate, a small piece of bogwood and a potted amazon sword. We seem to lose 2 every day or two, they're just dead in the morning. And they appear to be covered with lumps. They're too small to really see whats going on, but could it be white spot or fungal?
I think it may not be white spot as we had treated that, but one of our clowns still has signs of white patches on it, nothin else in the main tank does.
I dont want to lose anymore fish, and my wife expects me to know all the answers so can some please suggest anything to try / treat with?
thanks
