When I got home today I noticed one of my spotted corys kept surfacing for air. When I looked closer, the front of his mouth is covered in a white fuzz, he's having trouble breathing, and it looks like his barbels are gone. I'm thinking Columnaris. I quickly isolated him and I want to treat him with an antibiotic. Which is best for treatment of him and the rest of my tank which includes platys, more corys, zebra danios and a mystery snail. I did a 50% water change yesterday. My ammonia is 0, nitrite is 0, nitrate is 10. water is hard, about 7.8, plastic plants, filtered with a pengiun 150 and an AC 20. I treat water with prime. I can't think of anything else....oh yeah....it's a 20 high.
You really can't see the fuzz in the pic, but I did the best I could.
