Tank size:180 litres
pH: 6.5
ammonia: 0
nitrite: 0
nitrate: 10mg/l
kH:5
gH:4
tank temp:26 degrees celsius
Fish Symptoms (include full description including lesion, color, location, fish behavior):
Used to be very active, now hides at the back, only comes forward to flick on slate cave. Not feeding well, has a nibble but not well. Yesterday he had white stringy poop. Makes me think maybe a parasite.
Volume and Frequency of water changes:
Chemical Additives or Media in your tank: Easycarbo and melafix as my female dwarf gourami is recovering damage on her side.
Tank inhabitants: 10 zebra danio, 10 cardinal tetra, 2 dwarf gourami, 2 black phantom tetra, 2 male guppies, 1 otocinclus, 7 amano shrimp and another german blue ram
Recent additions to your tank (living or decoration): salvinia and some other plants last weekish
Exposure to chemicals: Chlorine test seemed a little high, only very slightly but i did a water change and added extra conditioner in just to be safe.
Thinking about putting him in a hospital tank tonight and trying to feed him some peas as the zebras are too fast for him to get a chance... just wanted some advice first
All other fish are fine, including the other german blue ram
