I have a few of my rift cichlids showing symptoms of wasting disease, sunken belly. I had this happen once before in a different tank years ago and I treated with kensfish flakes with metronidazole . I tried that again and it’s not working, so I tried API general cure and that didn’t work, so I waited a month and then I tried Fritz paracleanse and that seemed to help with a couple fish but not all. So now I’m mixing the paracleanse with their food to see if that helps. They all act healthy and eat well but the sunken belly’s are not improving except on a couple fish. It’s been about 4-5 months since I noticed the issue
But if anyone has any suggestions, Id appreciate it.
