What is your salinity? 1.008+? Sounds like something in their water is poisoning them. Check your ammonia levels. Not sure earthworms are an appropriate diet. You should probably do a water change. Without seeing your tank I am not sure whats wrong with it. Sounds like your GSP's symptoms are more likely because of water quality than of a parasite or disease.


How big is your tank?
 
hi ive a 190 litre tank and i feed them the odd meal worm not earth worms i use marine salt for my salinity i also so feed them one in a while small fiddler crabs my salinity is around 1008 10010 the one that has blown himself up just wont go back down think im gona lose him
 
What size tank and what are the water stats?

to have 3 GSP and a Ceylon it had better be a huge tank.
