I have a problem, already lost 2 ropefish. Their slime coat seemd to have been coming off and they looked darker and slick on mmost of their bodies. I did several daily water chages of 30% for 3 days and added api conditioner and salt.
Even with this they died by the 3rd day. Now i see white somewhat puffy looking areas on my delhzi, ornate and hybrid polys. Aslo and a retro which i introduced the day before the ropefish died (signs were present prior to the new fish introduction).
Amo 0, Nitates 0, nitrites 0, ph 7.0 for the last month or more. I did however skip a water change a few weeks back befor ethis all happend. But only because my levels were as stated above.
Aside from this issue in my 40 breeder i am now seeing cloudy eyes and stringy slime in my 125gallon with larger polys and clown and achara cat. Not everyone is affected but i see something creeping up. IN the 125 amo, 0, nitrates and nitrites off the chart a week ago but has since gone down to the next color from 0 after daily 25% water changes, salt and conditioner.
WHAT IS IN MY TANK? My concern is that i purched a gallon of API conditioner but the expiration date was mysteriously scrated off towards the end of the exp year. It reads: 02/20** and i dunno if it expired 2 months ago. Will this be eating away at slime coats or be causing the mysterious fuzziness on my fish?
I am medicating the 40 breeder with Mardel Maroxy. since is looks like a fungus and the 125, i removed the clown knife and have him in a 10 gallon hospital tank treating with Melafix. I am 3 days into treatment and i see little improvement.
WHAT CAN I DO TO NOT LOOSE ALL MY FISH?!??!??! Arghhhhhhh!!!
