1 of my cl is sick and i dont know whats wrong, he's gone a bit lathargic and has what looks like blood shot eyes, and has a white film on bits of his body. I lost 1 last week and another looks like it's startin with the same symptoms. water params are good but ph is at 6. all other fish are scting/eating fine. any ideas..?
 
just had a good look and he looks to have a white slime on parts of him and his eyes look bad:(
 
what have you got in with them?

hmmm ive never noticed any bullying from a tank mate, 1 of the clown loach is a bit of a knob but its never anything serious.....im thinking more disease....but what i dont know......:(
 
the slime coat could be damaged
