StormRel Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Water Parameters: pH ? Nitrates .5ppm Hardness Hard Nitrite 0 Ammonia 0 KH/Buffer ? Water Temperature 78F 10 Gallon tank Betta and 4 Zebra Danios These parameters are my tank, however the fish in question I just bought from the store and am unsure of what parameters they were in before. I just bought 4 Zebra Danios and one of them I noticed was a bit more ragged looking and swimming mostly at the top of the water. Upon closer inspection he seemed to have a small white lump on his side and a few lesions(?). I was super worried if it was contagious and immediately moved him to a separate 2.6 gallon tank, but he doesn’t seem to be moving much anymore and hasn’t eaten anything. I’m a bit new, but I have dealt with Ich and I don’t think that’s what it is. None of the other Danios have the same symptoms and seem fine. Any idea what it is? Should I be worried the others are now infected including my Betta? I’m so worried it’s columnaris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 with the lesions it could be a bacterial infection or a parasite infection what I would do is a course of paracleanse and maracyn together to cover all bases if start to see some improvement I would do another course of maracyn straight away and retreat with paracleanse in two weeks if he makes significant improvement after the second course of maracyn I don't think you will have to retreat with paracleanse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
