FriendlyLoach Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 I know that what is happening to my neon tetras is common. They have these white bumps that have slowly grew and spread from fish to fish. I see people with this all over the internet. I was wondering what peoples experience is with this and if you know a cure. I tried treating them with salt, paracleanse, and E.M erythromycin and nothing helped. I already had to euthanize two of my fish from it. Thank You! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 (edited) If maracyn has not worked try maracyn 2 one treats gram positive and one treats gram negative bacterial infection its bacterial or viral infection looking at pictures add aquarium salt one table spoon for 2gallons with maracyn 2 salt will damage you plants at that level Edited January 1, 2021 by Colu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobbit Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 I don’t have anything to add but I also have a tetra with two spots like this on him at the moment. Maracyn, salt (3 tbsp/5gal), and melafix haven’t touched it. I’m going to try ich-x next (I think it’s a long shot but I’m trying to treat some fin rot too) and if that doesn’t work I’ll try maracyn 2 like @Colu suggested. Let me know if you make any discoveries! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
