I bought 2 powder blue dwarfs and 2 fire dwarfs on sat and put them in with my 4 rainbows. One of the powder blues wasn't swimming much at the store and had a bit of fin rott so I thought hed be ok once I put him in clean water. It only took 24 hours for his fins to disintergrate, for him to turn pale and have a red sore show up on his side...I took him out immediatly when I notice this and gave him antibacterial meds. About 8 hours later he was dead. The rest are are doing really well but now I'm thinking they're doomed to the same fate. The same day I bought the gouramis I also bought some cichlids for my cichlid tank and used the same contaminated net I used for the gouramis. I have 15 of these most of them being a few years old and beautiful. What's the chance of all my fish dying? Anything I could do to help save them? How long before the other fish show symptoms? It just seems like it was such an aggressive disease that I'm panicking.
