Help me with my female apistogramma nijsseni

[keith42]

I've had her and my male for 3 months now and they've been great. My setup is 10g heavily planted with diy co2. Parameters are all 0nitrate 0nitrite 0ammonia. The male is doing wonderfully. Colors are bright and he's all over the tank eating very well. My female has been the same up until about 2 days ago she's hiding more and has something on her snout. Any help would be appreciated

Hard to tell from the pics, but it looks like her jaw might be stuck open? Hard to put it back in with fish that small, but possible.

It's hard to tell, but it may be Flexibactor columnaris, if it is, the jaw will not be able to be pressed back into place. Columnaris is most lethal and virulent at temps above 82'F so I'd gradually lower the temp into the 70sF, and vacuum out any detritus with water changes. The bacteria tend to reside in detritus. You should post in the disease section, and Tom (Aquanero) could offer the proper medications to use.
