Fish Crazy
Well, I have lost a lot of fish recently to what must be a bacterial infection. I posted in the gourami forum where we thought it might be TB but the guy at the lfs (who seems pretty knowledgable to me) said that my symptoms weren't necessarily caused by TB - he said that emanciation would be a more definite symptom.
The symptoms were varied and all sorts of the fish listed in the signature died, but not all of them fortunately. The symptoms were heavy 'breathing', loss of appetite, ulceration, frayed fins and scratching. I think some of the ones left also have this because they 'scratch'.
I treated the tank for 6 days with myxazin but it hasn't seemed to help - as soon as i stopped using it 6 neon tetras died (I posted in the emergency forum about this but didn't get much of a response).
I'm really not sure what to do next because if I don't know what it is then i can't really treat it. .
