How To Cure Neon Tetra Disease?

[Neal]

I think my neons have neon tetra disease, one died yesterday and one died today. I think that another may die tommorow as he isn't really swimming in a school but he is still close to them. I'd like to know how to get rid of this disease as I only have 4/6 neons left.

NTD as far as i know is incurable, but its also relatively rare- what symptoms did your neons show before they died plus do you have any recent test results for ammonia, nitrites and nitrates?

are you sure it is NTD (which is incurable and highly contagious)?
there is a very similar disease often called false NTD by more accuratly
columnaris.

The red stripe goes pale like it's bleached out, they get cysts, are restless, they can bloat up, even have popeye bacterial infections on top, a bent spine.

it will cure false NTD, but there is no cure for NTD

According this it will help infected fish if not actual cure. As you said, lets hope its not NTD

My neons didn't have all of them symptoms, they just stopped schooling with the others and one of them stayed at the top of the tank as if he was breathing like a labrynth. Now my neons have kind of split into two schools but they sometimes all stay together. I'll see what tommorow brings, hopefully it wasn't just NTD.
