Tors need help! White mucus !

[pbass510]

So I just came back from a 2 day trip and I made sure to do a WC and feed them til they were full before I left. I came back home tonight and one of them died and only my mahseers have this white stuff on them. I cant tell if its ich or what because its all over and some are white blotches and some of it looks like ich. Im freaking out because the smallest one is looking bad! and one of my bigger ones already died when I came back. Please help I just did a 50% WC added a lot of salt and ich treatment. I dont know why none of my other dithers or BATF are being affected at all. Temp is at 80F and they were all good before I left.

First you should test your water to see if something is off. If the water test ok, the 2 things that can be the problem is either it is parasitic or bacterial. You can treat for both. You do need to follow direction and do the required water change. Good Luck.

Please post your water perameters Ammonia, nitrites, nitrates, Ph, hardness and Temp. If you could do this before the water change it would be more useful.

One of my Arulius Barbs just developed similar what splotches on his head, tail and torso.

Checked my water parameters and everything is good (PH 7.8, Ammo 0, Nitrites 0, Nitrates 10). Not sure what's up. I see that you're also in the Bay Area and thought maybe it could be the water supply, but you're proabably on EBMUD and I'm on CC County.

Hope it clears up.

For now do a 50% water change and substrate vacuming, add 1 tablespoon of salt per 5 gallons of water.
