I have 2 Dats who are showing red mouths, cloudy eyes and whitish gills... I really don't want them to die but am thinking its pretty inevitable atm. If someone could ID the disease I'd be really greatful. Ive lost a Tigrinus recently and that hurt a lot. I'll try to post pics soon, thanks in advance.
 
Anyone know?? Thye're getting worse! I tried changing half the water and cant find any info online... They stopped eating now and are swimming near the surface. They seem to be losing the ability to stay up straight.

Thanks man... the one I lost has red streaks on its gills and tail now. They werent as obvious when he was living. This is the part I hate most about this hobby... feel so bummed thinking theres nothing I can do for the lil guys :cry:
 
dat disease. doesn't help much, i know. i'd do another massive water change and add more salt than you think is ok, and raise temp to 85-90. tons of salt!!!!! i've had many dats and a few died from dat disease, but that redness around mouth, i've never seen. add salt and raise temp. good luck brother.
