Hello,
Recently one of my silvertip tetras seems to be missing part of his mouth, and is what I can only describe as constantly "glugging" rapidly. This also seems to be causing difficulty for him to eat, however he is otherwise behaving completely normal.
I am guessing this is mouth rot, but I don't see any white patches, so wanted to see if anyone else could offer any insights. I have attached a few pictures. I have been treating with food medicated with Kanaplex (mixed with bug bites in pectin) for the past 2 days with no apparent change in the fish's condition yet.
Thank you for any help!
Water parameters are as follows:
pH = 7.8
Nitrates = ~10-20ppm
Hardness= Don't have a kit, however the tap water here is around 9GH
Nitrite- 0
Ammonia- 0
KH/Buffer- Don't have a kit, however I have a layer of crushed coral on top of my gravel substrate w/ a UGF
Water temperature - 75F
