It's been a tragic weekend here. I came home Friday night to find my spotted cory with a severe case of mouth fungus (didn't notice any symptoms the night before), so I ran out to the LFS and bought a couple of packages of FURAN-2 capsules and started treatment immediately. Well, unfortunately the fungus had already done it's damage and the cory dies yesterday afternoon, but I decided to continue the treatment in case there was any remaining fungus (the treatment calls for 4 days and he died on day 2).
As I was tidying up the tank tonight, however, I noticed that my neon tetras (7) and showing signs of both Ich & fin rot! Should I stop the fungus treatment, give it a day with the carbon back in (taken out during treatment), then start an Icn & fin rot treatment (depending on the severity at that time)? Or should I finish the fungus treatment first, which claims to also take care of body slime, eye cloud & furunculosis?
I'm worried that continuing this treatment is actaully helping the other diseases spread by not having any carbon in the filter.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
My tank (55 gal):
7 Neon Tetras
2 medium Plecos
2 Dwarf Blue Gouramis
1 M Black Sailfin Molly
1 F Black Molly
1 GreenGold Cory
