lots of water changes. my silver started losing some fin so i started doing big water changes 1 time a week. make sure you have enough filtration too....good luck, Id hate to see you lose any fish, let alone a jar.

Check your water quality.
You using any activated carbon in your filtration? If so, are they overdue for change?

If the carbon in the filtration has been left there for a long time, and if it is overdue, will that give a effect or cause a disease like this or any?

I did....no dice He must be eating sometime though cause he looks really good and is really active. I just never see him eat.
