Neon Tetra Disease?

[slevytam]

Hi,

I have a neon that sometimes looks cloudy. I've have caught it on its own a few times. Could someone take a look and see if any signs of neon tetra disease are present... (or anything else)

Thanks,

SL

I cant see it in the pic, i dont have enough experience there. But i do know that NTD symptom is that the red line fades. So keep an eye out for that.

P.T.

Occosionally one of my neons just gos and sits by itself in the corner. It may just not like the other neons, it may be a decoy ect.

When its swimming becomes erratic then begin to worry. Try reading up a bit more on the disease. But for now I wouldnt worry.

Hi, I have 11 neons and right from the beginning one of them has not swam with the rest except at feeding time. He sits in a corner and chases the others away. I call him Billy no-mates.

Thanks alot for your responses!

Sorry I didn't message back earlier but I didn't get any email notifications...

I guess I'll just wait it out a bit and see if it changes

I've attached another pic just in case it might be clearer.

Thanks,

The neons gills look a bit red, and it may just be the way you took it but it also looks like it has white spot.

Have you read this?

Which disease are you refering to? I can't seem to find neon tetra...

Thanks,

I think he is referring to white spot aka ich.

Maybe gill flukes as well. Just keep an eye on the fish.

I've found another fish (cobra guppy) with a large white spot around its eye. I have another cobra without this spot. This time I am pretty sure its unmistakeable. The cobra is the newer fish - perhaps it was the carrier?

I have quarentined these two fish and put a pill of Mardel Maracyn in the water. Is this the correct medication? Also, what about my original tank? Should I treat this. I am a bit hesitant to do this as I have very recently added some discus.

Thanks again for the help,

SL
