Hello,
I've had those angels for 6 years now and since two have died of the group of seven. I've had fish forever but had never faced the symptoms they showed. Maybe I was lucky up 'till now. One of them just wasted away, he still ate well but just got skinnier and weaker until he stopped breathing one sad day. The other developed a very distended abdomen and eventually died. Now, of the remaining 5 two are showing similar symptoms again - one skinny but eating well and the other with a hugely distended abdomen and also eating well. I tried Melafix and Pepsofood to no avail. I tried changing the diet too (in case the fat one was constipated) to include frozen brine shrimp but the sick fish don't seem to like it. What to do? Eggbound (both of the distended one, the deceased one and the current one were/are females) Vs. Internal Parasites?? I feel frustrated since fish medication is so limited and obscure a topic. Please help!
