Hi again, about a week ago I bought 15 neons from the LFS. I noticed 2 bloated tetras and I went to search on it, thinking they were getting ready to lay eggs, and I see pictures of bloated tetras with Neon Tetra Disease and they look exactly my fish. :0( I have a tank with guppies, tetras and mollies. I keep my water in great condition and am constantly doing water changes

I am not sure what to do. Should I remove these fish? Do I need to euthanize them? Shoudl I be concerned that these fish have given my other fish this disease?

Thank you very much for any help. I really need and appreciate it.
 
Bloating isn't a symptom of NTD; fish suffering with that become emaciated, not bloated. I'd do a large (80 or 90%) water change, use an anti-internal bacteria med (Myxazin is what I always recommend, if you're in the UK) and don't feed for three or four days and see how things look then.
