Whats Going On?

First one of my cory`s died, it had a swolen belly (was fine the night before), today i found one of my khuli loaches upside down and pale, it wasnt dead but had a massive belly, also one of my platies has fallen ill its swollen and its scalles are lifted from its body! i isolated the loach and platty, the loach has died and the platty looks very sore! This is my first problem in over a year...... can some one tell me whats going on?
I know there must be a parasite problem but what treatment do i use? The tank looks fine and the rest of the fish are happy as normal, water stats are good too!

Where are you located? Some meds are unavailable in different countries.

Well the platy has now died too. My thoughts are dropsy as its very swollen and its scales are rased. Do i need to treat my tank?

Yes, it seems that you do have a case of dropsy and immediate treatment is needed as it sounds as though it is and advanced case, but the only way we can recommend meds is if we know your location as different meds are available in different countries.

Hi im in manchester england. I have got some treatment its, Interpet Anti Internal Bacteria. It cures Bacterial gillrot, dropsy, ulcers and septicaemia. Th infected fish were removed right away and they died in a seperate tank so will the main tank need treating?

Thanks.
