Hi everyone,
I posted about a week ago about Gouramis possibly introducing a nasty infection to my aquarium. I was advised to add API general cure and I added the recommended dosage for 2 days. I have since done about a 50% water change and put in a brand new filter cartridge. 1 day later, I lost another neon tetra. I am now very concerned since I've lost about 10 fish total to this illness. The fish will slowly lose weight and energy, become unable to swim and just die. There is another neon that appears to have lost a lot of weight, but he still is swimming with his group and eating. I also tested the water parameters yesterday and they appear to be normal - ammonia between 0 and 0.25 ppm, nitrites - 0, nitrates - 5 ppm
Should I add another dose of API general cure and change 75% of the water afterwards?
