HELP small delhezi with red spots on stomach?

[neko1]

Yea. Not sure if it’ll make it. Small and skinny del for 2-3 years owned. I’d dose some levamisole and kanamycin. Clean water. Is it eating? Have you seen it eat?

I havent seen her eat in 2 days. Noticed the scars/internal bleeding yesterday for the first. Before she was a bit thicker. Now she looks like a gold eel. I dont think she is gone make it. But i need to know how this happend. Otherwise all my fish might die. Getting watertests in a moment.
Except parasitis or disease i got two possible explanations:

-can it be the hejuta gar that tried to eat him? I was thinking it might just be pike teeth
-can it be heat burn by the heater?

I doubt those two things. Don’t look like a heater burn. Rocket gars will usually leave polys alone. Difficult to see with their mouths.

Im gone put him alone, raise temperature add salt. And then i will try to feed him twice a day. But he doesnt wane eat. Should i forcefeed him? Or wait a day?

I'm honestly not too sure whether force feeding will do much; you can try, but that'll likely just put a lot of stress on the fish, and may induce vomiting; rendering the entire operation useless. If he's not moving, then I really don't think he'll make it... Have you tried infusing food items in garlic? I've heard that it may help encourage a fish to eat, although I've personally never tried it myself. Good luck to you and your bichir- I really hope he pulls through.

Wouldn’t force feed. Keep temps around 76-80. Try the garlic as already mentioned.

i added 1 tablespoon salt and i got a blacklisted medicine that should work against fbc. Hoping he makes it but he looks already dead.. heavy breathing

 

[neko1]

Are my other fish okay? is it a disease which he or she got when she was young and after two years it started killing her or?
I havent bought anything new in fish in 2/3 months. All other fish seem fine. this are parameters of the tank.

 

[neko1]

he looks dead but i swear he is doing better then 30min ago. he looks far but he started breathing better. Now i atleast got some hope he might make it

 

[neko1]

yep she is dead.. i put her in the fridge. Gone take her to a doctor tomorrow or day after if i have time to see if its really tbc.
if it is i probably have to put all my 80 fish down.... really praying for this one to be the first death and last.

If you had that fish for 2-3 years it was sick long before now and only a matter of time before it finally died. Polys are extremely hardy fish and it takes a lot to put them down for the count.. I doubt it's anything overly transferable or you'd be seeing issues with the other fish
