I have a 20 gallon tank that i food cycled for about 6 weeks before adding anything. I have added 1st 8 shrimp, the next weekend i added 7 albino corys, then a week and half later after added 6 harlequin rasboras. That was about a week and a half ago and everyone was great until yesterday i noticed a white spot on one of my Raboras lips just like a little white dot i dont think its ick as its not a bunch of little white dots. Then today i noticed one of his side fins iseems hard and white and he is not eating or schooling just sitting in the corner. After my research that was pretty damn hard i determined it likely fungul so i went and got some API Pimafix and put the recommended dose in. The other Rasboras are still schooling and eating but i noticed a little redness near their gills now not sure if that was from the Pimaflex or if it is related to the clearly sick Rasbors. The Shrimp and Corys all seem fine also have a few snails running around.. Currently water parameters when tested with API test kit show no ammonia, nitrates or nitrites. PH was good. I did a 25% water change about 4 days ago. I tried to get pics of the redness in gills but these guys are tough to get one of I did my best but it is not a good pick There are live and articial plants in the tank if that means anything. I also ordered some Maracyn also that will be here ina few days just in case. Any idea on what this could be or what my next steps should be.
