Fish Fanatic
I've noticed tonight that one of my 3 rams is looking pretty ill. I've got 2 males & 1 female who have been living happily in 180l tank for past 6 months. My female is looking quite grey in colour, gasping for air, she was originally staying at the back/top of the tank but she's now slowly trying to swim about but still looks pretty ill and not eating. She is usually quite tame, and comes to the front o fthe tank when i put my fingers there but today she just isnt interested. She does look swollen (don't think its dropsy though) and i originally thought she was full of eggs (they have spawned before recently) but her colour now tells me it must be something else. All the other fish seem ok and are swimming around quite lively. The males are acting normally. Tested water stats and all fine (am- 0, nit-0 ph 7.4), done 20% water change yesterday but still no improvement. Anyone got any ideas. After reading details on net, it seems that Rams do often die suddenly - has anyone had this happen.
