I brought home a new bristlenose pleco Saturday and everything was fine until Tuesday night. Then i noticed my venustus being lethargic and inactive but he still ate with everyone else. Then yesterday i had 2 pictus cats die in the tank. I don't see any visible issues but my eyes aren't the best. This afternoon my third and last pictus died as did the venustus. Parameters are good, I'll include a photo of the pictus and venustus, as well as others in the tank who seem unaffected but i don't want to lose any more. I treated with prazi last night as it's the only med i have on hand but since i don't know what the issue is i don't know if the prazi will do any good. Please share any insights.
