    With the redding in the fins and mouth a would be leaning towards a bacterial infection I would start treating with kanaplex or maracyn2

    I would wait to return the mystery snails for at least a week just in case they have a relapse and need further treatment 5 should be fine if your going to add more I would wait 6 weeks and quarantine any new fish for 4weeks before adding them to the main tank @HelplessNewbie

    I don't think it's a parastic infection do the Epsom salt baths if your not noticing any improvement after 5 days of Epsom salt baths then I would follow up with a course of kanaplex or maracyn2

    Looking at the lump it could be caused by an internal blockage or a tumor that doesn't look good even with treatment a don't think the prognosis is good this might be better to euthanize him with clove oil asking @Odd Duckfor a second opinion
  8. Colu
    Finish the course of maracyn2 as you have started it then follow up with kanaplex and jungal fungus clear fizz tabs if you still seeing symptoms@HelplessNewbie

    Am going to tag @mountaintoppufferkeeper @Beardedbillygoat1975 as they both have experience with red eyed puffers

    So it could be 0-0.3 I would just follow the treatment I recommended

    The fact that your seeing nitrite could mean your tank has had a interruption in the cycle what I would is test daily if you see any nitrite do a water change and add a double prime or Fritz complete to help detoxify any nitrite first I would do the Epsom salt baths for 5 days if your not seeing any improvement after 5 days them I would do a course of metroplex in food feeding a small amount twice a day for upto 3 weeks @Zoidar

    Little more information would be helpful what are your water parameters ammonia nitrite nitrate pH temperature the other neons who had the swollen belly did they get better could be egg bound something else could be going on internally if it were egg bound you would want to do Epsom salt baths 1 table spoon for 1 gallon for no more than 15 minutes for 5 days as Epsom salt acts as a muscle relaxant@Zoidar

    Shrimp are used by catfish breeder to keep the eggs clean in breeder box's so I don't think it would be a problem I haven't tried that combination I have been breeding bristlenose for 20 years not much in my experience interferes with there breeding

    Sorry to hear that at least some of them made a full recovery
  16. Colu
    I would start treating with maracyn2 and I would also add some aquarium salt 1 table spoon for 2 gallons I would treat the whole tank

    Possible columnaris with the patch on its back columnaris is a gram negative bacteria that spreads more quickly at temperature over 75 and can kill in 24hr-7days depending on the strain what I would do is treat with a combination of kanaplex and jungal fungus clear fizz tabs containing nitrofurazone following this treatment plan @HelplessNewbie
  18. Colu
    What I would do is quarantine and treat with aquarium salt 1 table spoon for 1 gallon and do a course of jungal fungus clear fizz tabs containing nitrofurazone
  19. Colu
    What I would do is quarantine the two fish with spots keep treating with ick X and add aquarium salt 1 table spoon for 2 gallons
  20. Colu
    I would add an air stone and a couple of drops of methylene blue or malachite green to prevent the eggs getting fungus
  21. Colu
    Looks like an injury what I would do is a course of kanaplex and add some aquarium salt 1 table spoon for 5 gallons add an extra air stone during treatment as medication will lowers the level of desloved oxygen in tank
  22. Colu
    Hopefully they will love it like my catfish do
