Pink Lumps On Rosey Barb

[luckyonion]

Hi my rosey barb has started to act realy strange, i have videos and pictures you can see the pink small lumps which have appeared to the top and bottom fin.They
dont seem to be getting bigger but she has started to move realy strange. She keeps pointing her whole body down ways so her nose is facing the stones and her fins flicker so fast. Then all of a sudden she will act normal again. I have no other barbs in the tank as ive had a major problem with my tank lately. Fish keep dyeing but some dont look ill or have anything obvious like lumps. Myself and my neighbour have been finding levels of ammonia in our tap water. This is before anything is added and before its even gone into the fish tank.
Im just puzzled now what to do.

I do my water changes and add tap safe and i have had all these different aquatic shops advising me different things and nothings helped. Latest victim was another guppy and a danio.

some stores say use bottled water, is this ok? im not sure whos advice to take anymore.

Also my neighbours fish are dyeing about the same rate as mine roughly one every few weeks, theyv only had there tank set up about 6 months now and did everything by the book so to speak. there water directly from the tap also showed up with ammonia in it.

i feel bad that the fish are now dyeing and some fish are now left without a partner. dont want to add anymore fish until i know its safe.

hope ive done the pics correctly

If you are referring to the bit near the anus then it's probably breeding tube.

However, rosey barbs are shoaling fish and therefore will be stressed by itself. Recommended number is usually at least 5, preferbly 8+. Your rosy barb looks pretty pale, so I am guessing it is rather stressed.

Also, what are your water parameters? High ammonia can cause scale irritation, which may explain the flickering. If you have mature media however, they should be able to sort out the ammonia in your tap water however.

I have no idea to be honest I need go look up more on this tank as I took it over when I moved in with my boyfriend and have tried to get advice from aquatic stores. tbh I don't know what I'm doings.
I know the rowsey barbs need to be with more but like I said as I've had deaths in the tank I didn't think it would be wise to put more in as I thought theyd meet a grizzly end like the others : / I understand a out water changes and what I should put in.
I think I need help!! : /
so can you tell me what I can use go remove the ammonia from the tap water or is it not as simple as that?

I'm thinking this is a parasite of some kind. You should probably repost this in fish emergencies and get a quicker and more accurate answer.

It does look like the lower one is on the birthing tube, but that doesn't explain the top one.
