Galaxy Rasbora Pale Patches

[bigstinka]

have lost 4 galaxys so far and they seem to get pale patches on their sides all in different places on each fish.
have also lost 3 pymaeus corys. they looked fine at 1030 last night but found 2 this morning less than 12 hours later.

help!!!! was intending to breed these!

what are your water stats etc?

 

[bigstinka]

liquid tests are fine. no amonia and no reading on nitrate and nitrite

 

[WILDER]

Bacterial to parasite if stats are fine.
If there no flicking and rubbing on objects I would treat it as bacterial.
Good luck.

I would be worried if you had no Nitrate reading. Maybe your test kit is faulty.

found 9 more today. going to lfs to get them to test it. got 3-4 more with these patches. trying protozyn at the mo.

Are the patches looking fluffy.
Any fish laboured breathing or flicking and rubbing against objects.
