If he sill has Redding to the fins that's a sign of an active infection you might have to do two courses of kanaplex back to back can you take a picture of the fins @Ronnie
-
Could be a small cyst or possibly injured himself causing a small amount of inflammation what I would do is add some Indian almond leaves as they have antibacterial and antifungal properties you might have to add one leaf per gallon to get a beneficial effect and monitor for a week if you notice any change give us an update

Sometimes you will have to do two courses of kanaplex back to back what I would do is leave it 5 days add some inda almond leaves and monitor then follow up with another course of kanaplex if your seeing no change

Forgot to add only use that level of salt in quarantine tank at that level it would be harmful to your loach @reefhugger

With white patches it's always best to air on the side of caution possible columnaris could also be fungal it's difficult to tell off your picture I would do a course of kanaplex and aquarium salt 1 table spoon for 1 gallon the combination of kanaplex and salt will treat bacterial and fungal infections just remember with salt to only put back in what you take out so if you do a 1 gallon water change put 1 table spoon of salt back in as salt only removed though water changes leave the salt for a minimum of 7 days at that level than gradually start to lower it to 1 table spoon for 3 gallons for another week@reefhugger

Possibly injured itself and it's got some inflammation under the skin causing a small lump assuming there Indian almond leaves in the tank i would add more as they have antibacterial and antifungal properties and monitor for next 5 days to the see if lump gets bigger or reduces in size and add a small amount of aquarium salt 1 table spoon for 10 gallons that will aid Gill function and add essential electrolytes at that level safe for your loach then give an update if you notice it getting worse @pancake

Dropsy can be caused by a number of things such as organ failure parasitic infections internal bacterial infections the most effective treatment I have found is aquarium salt to help reduce any fluid buildup dose the tank with kanaplex to treat any possible internal bacterial infections and do a course of metroplex in food feeding a small amount twice a day for upto 3 weeks @Bonex
-
When you think it's got to point were it's got no quality of life and it's suffering that when I would make the decision to humanely euthanize as @Tony s said it's never an easy decision to make
-
To my eye that looks like a cancerous tumor or benign growth sometimes you can get lumps like this with a bacterial infections I don't think it's something that will respond to medication looking at were it's located I would consider humanely euthanizing it with clove oil

Something is wrong with my Betta fishes left eye
Colu replied to TheDesktopAquarium's topic in Diseases
Am not familiar with use of guava or jackfruit leaves I don't think the they would have the same effect as Indian almond leaves -
It's becoming more prevalent in hobby

Metronidazole does treat aeromonas that gram negative bacteria you would want to treat with maracyn2 or maracyn in food or dose the tank with kanaplex @Chick-In-Of-TheSea

Something is wrong with my Betta fishes left eye
Colu replied to TheDesktopAquarium's topic in Diseases
It can be caused by an injury to the eye when it's only affecting one eye it can Also be caused by a bacterial infections as @Whitecloud09 mentioned I would add a low dose of aquarium salt 1 table spoon for 7 gallons at that level it shouldn't harm your plants or shrimp and add some Indian almond leaves as they have antibacterial and antifungal properties you might have to add one leaf per gallon to get a beneficial effect after 5 days if your seeing no change than I would do a course of maracyn2 it's shrimp safe and it also has anti-inflammatory properties -
Kanaplex in food isn't very effective in food as very little of the medication is absorbed by the intestinal tract I would use maracyn or maracyn2 in food he's a recipe

It's also possible there were suffering from neon tetra disease that why the neons died and not your other fish
-
Possible Canal neuromast inflammation that can be caused by a high bacterial count in your water that can cause small raised spots or they can look like a fluffy pimple and you can get discoloration of the head he's some pictures for comparison the recommended treatment is to increase water change and filtration to lower the bacterial count if you have a uv steriliser I would use that for week see if you notice any improvement if he gets worse then I would do a course of kanaplex @Chick-In-Of-TheSea

Dose daily do a 30% water change then redose ick X I would do that for 7 days if your not seeing improvement after the 7 days then i would consider the hydrogen peroxide treatment @Supermassive
-
Keep treating with bactopur direct gradually lower the salt over next week bactopur might help your angelfish with the red spot issue with it's face you might have to do two full courses of treatment back to back @Nick93
-
Just keep a close eye of your water parameters and do another water change if needed
