Agreed to the top.

Less stress, bump temp, add a more air stones, add salt, water changes and feed guppies. That's pretty much all you can do at this point. Best of luck man. I hope they all pull through.
 
That's terrible on the vendors part! A case of iche like that doesn't happen over night!

Bump the temp up to 87 at the minimum. Personally I would stock the take with feeders so that they can really eat to gain some strength back, fish in that shape aren't going to come up for pellets, especially kelberis. There shy fish who commonly won't eat for you until 2 or 3 days latter. PM me if you need additional help.
 
wow that sucks.....i would be pissed. Seen his auction for kels on aquabid too. Thanks for posting and hopefully they get better.

I said that they looked a little thin in your other thread when you were inquiring about them but of course I had no clue that they would come in like this.I kind of feel bad now that I suggested that you jump on these.

I wouldn't feel bad bro Kels were a great pick up. It's not his fault it was the vendor for sure. But I am sure if he can stabilize the ich which sounds like it is officially in stage 2 then he can save them. I am not here to trash the vendor just here to hopefully help get them back into good health. I never get ich after I had to deal with it on a shipment recieved years back. Only took me one time to learn my lesson. Some vendors do the best they can but the don't keep Cichla they sell them.

Isn't this the same guy who sold you the Guyana ocell that didn't make it either?

Hope these guys pull through.
