These threads are also useless when someone says "my water is fine"
We NEED to know the exact water parameters. Very rarely is PH too low.
It sounds like your fish have septicemia, which is a bacterial infection in the blood stream. This needs to be treated ASAP or your fish WILL die.
Pictures, and param readings are a must. Also what is your filtration?
