BGoodyFish Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Hello, This forum is really great! Thank you to all who are more knowledgeable than I. I've been treating this Galaxy Rasbora with Ich-x and very small doses of salt (because of planted aquarium I cannot go too high). With no success. I've been treating off and on for months with no success but it does not seem to bother her so i let her be for a while until recently I lost another rasbora in the same tank so I thought I would try treating again. Any suggestion on what this is and how to treat. I have plants in the aquarium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 It looks like columnaris but the fact it's been going on for a couple of month means we can rule out columnaris that would have killed all your fish by now what are your water parameters ammonia nitrite nitrate etc do use a water treatment like prime when doing water @BGoodyFish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGoodyFish Posted January 30, 2023 Author Share Posted January 30, 2023 (edited) @Colu Thanks for the reply! I use Seachem pH Neutral regulator to treat water after water changes. Ammonia - 0 Nitrate - Usually around 10 but just did a water change so they are currently at 0 Nitrite - 0 Chlorine - 0 Total Harness - 80 ppm Carbonate - 120 ppm(on the higher end) pH - 7.6 Edited January 30, 2023 by BGoodyFish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
