livebearer_breeder Posted December 13, 2005 Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 There's no gurantee that they will settle down. But in general it might help, if i were you i would get rid of the rasboras. Shae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livebearer_breeder Posted December 13, 2005 Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 Sell them on Trademe, give them away to a fellow keeper, or take them back to the shop. Shae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livebearer_breeder Posted December 13, 2005 Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 My Guess, Costia or Neon Disease, other than that might possibly be the beginning of pop eye. Shae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casey05 Posted December 13, 2005 Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 is it possible to treat those conditions?if yes is it anything that can be treated with something from home perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livebearer_breeder Posted December 13, 2005 Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 Not entirly sure, i would add soem peat to the tank to act as a relaxant, then increase the silinity, and worse case use Cure-ex. Shae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livebearer_breeder Posted December 13, 2005 Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 No Worries, It's always a shame when fish get sick. Secret is not to stress, things like this happen, the more you fuss over it, the more likley somthing bad will result. Shae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casey05 Posted December 13, 2005 Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 its on the floor of the tank now upside down breathing real hard.its dying but i aint worrying now.my new tanks all setup now and the waters at 25 degrees.when the neon dies i'll put the other fish in the new tank.i havent tested my water yet so i dont know if its okay.its tapwater with 4 capfuls aqua plus and 4+1/2 capfuls cycle been going since saturday.do you think it would be okay to put my fish in now.i'll put the heater in first of course but the tanks got good filtration and my other tank is really dirty on the bottom.do you think i should take the chance and risk it?

casey05 Posted December 14, 2005 Report Share Posted December 14, 2005 i ended up flushing that sick fish and risked moving the fish.they are now very happy and enjoying the new tank :bounce: the danios are swimming through the bubble wall all the time and like swimming fast as now they can with a bigger tank.
