Just want some advice regarding my clown loaches. I've been medicating them for ICH and using aquria-sol and so far everything is going good with only a few spots left on 1 or 2 loaches, but I've noticed on of my clown loach looking really weird, mouth is open all the time and the eyes seems huge and looks really weak and lazy. I've seen this before and lost 1 clown loach with the same symptom and it died a few days after. Also I have small ones that look really skinny and haven't gain any weight inspite of them eating like pigs..Can anybody tell me what to do, I don't wanna lose this one cause he's the biggest one I have about 2.5 inches...My water parameters are good: Ammonia 0, Nitrites 0, Nitrates below 20 ppm, temp 86 degrees, ph 7.6....any advice would be great...thanks....
need help for my clown loaches...

I'm not sure how you have ich in a tank at 86ºF. I've treated ich twice by turning the temperature up to 82ºF and got rid of it in a couple days each time.
My suggestion: Add cucumber into their diet. Just slice a piece off, and attach it to something at the bottom of the tank. It is very good for them, helps naturally fight internal parasites ~ Mine get 2 slices at lunch time
