what medicines did u use? i had a lil hex outbreak in 2 tanks a lil while ago. cured every fish except one which is still fighting in a quarinitine. i used 2 diff meds, both pill form that disolves in water. i would keep trying untill he passes away. my fish ate small worms no matter what during their sickness. i recomend finding some live bloodworms, or use small earth worms. milipeeds are an attractive meal also. my fish can't resist squiggly stuff even on thier death bed, even if they only eat 2-3 thats one more day u can hopefully find a med that works
He's still pretty active and still gets excited when I come up to his tank. He's been treated with so many things, and I've tweaked his water so much I'm worried I'm doing more harm than good. So I just set everything back to normal and now I wait.....

well. Whatever medication is used to cure whatever it is he has, you should pick him out of the water and squirt it in his mouth. That's how I cured my fish who didn't eat for more than a month. I cured my fish by force feeding.
I need to figure out how to do that.....what kind of medication comes in a liquid? All I've got is powder and tablets.

Good luck with your beautiful baby. I once had a large male Red Devil with white poo for about three months. I just left him alone, medicated the tank with antibiotics, did a lot of water changes and he slowly got better. He lasted another year and I enjoyed every minute of it.
