I recently(3weeks ago) aquired a group of leopard ctenopoma(18), all seem to be eating very well and are active. but now i am starting to loose them to an unknown sickness(down to about 12). most of them look fine but a few of them are faded and look sick. the fish that look bad are looking faded and cloudy from the lateral line up. the lower half of the fish looks fine. has any experienced this or something similar. any idea on how to cure? i started treatment 2 days ago with api fungus cure, erythromycin and salt. I also upped the temp to 84f but i'm not seeing any improvement with the infected fish. None of the other fish seem at all affected(SAL,ghost knife,some cichlid fry). I really don't want to loose these fish, any help would be appreciated


cheers,
Jordan
