Hi there people,

I have just got home from work and went to feed my fish and I have 2 very sick looking fish, a Platy and a Cory, I also lost a pearl gourami last week and am wondering if its related at all.

Here is the link to the video on my photo bucket account.....

The Platy is very thin and wobbles when he swims, he also rests on the bottom, the Cory is exhibiting the exact same symptoms, whereas the Pearl Gourami was a sudden death and didn't seem ill, just woke up one morning and he was dead :-(

My water stats are Ammonia 0, Nitrates 0 and 25 respectively. And I did a 50% water change in Monday.

Are they too far gone and should I euthanise or is there a way back?
 
i would say the platy has an internal parasite. and possibly the cory as well but then again maybe the cory isn't getting enough food... so start dropping shrimp pellets and you can see a change with it.
 
Thanks for the reply, I can't get hold of any internal parasite stuff until tomorrow evening now so will just have to wait and see. The corys get plenty of food, the other 5 are doing great :)
