You should still grab water parameters just in case something is out of whack.
you say your water should be good bc it was fine when you left....that is a horrible assumption to make.
You had a vacation feeder block in the tank for two weeks (essentially fouling the water), you’ve had a dead fish in the tank for how many days? (Also fouling the water)
you should be doing a large water change As your top priority
It was a 5 day vacation
The fish was eaten instantly by the Oscar.. I'd assume at least, he's definitely big enough and the pbass was very skinny(I got him that way) and he's no where to be seen in the tank. I assume the waters fine because all 6 other fish are acting normal including the ones with infections. But your right I should check the water... I just did a few minutes ago and it is all fine. 0 ammonia 0 nitrite 10ppm nitrate

Awe my mistake I thought I read at the beginning that you were back after 14 days
I would still suggest a water change
yes of course I just began doing one. My local pet store dosen't carry paraguard, any other widely available medication for this serevum and pbass you guys would suggest? It would take 6 days for the medication to arrive through amazon, is it worth the wait or even more important can the fish survive that long?
would melafix be alirght? Petco, Petsmart and my two local fish stores don't carry triple sulfa or paraguard
Doesn’t do anything. Might carry erythromycin.
Melafix is garbage. Scam. Whatever you want to call it.
