hullo all,

tank and fish are three plus years old. weekly 20% water changes. water tests good.

last two months, angels slowly showing some wasting away behind the pectorals, also fins becoming a bit ragged and wasting between the rays.
Corys losing some of their barbels. (substrate seems smooth enough) appetites are still good.
Loaches are happily oblivious.

LFS advised and sold me erythromycin drops which the fish in the tank will feed on. Does any one have track history of the symptoms or this medicine?

Thanks,

steve

Kind of difficult to diagnose at this point.

It seems unlikely to me that bacteria/ infection is the problem unless there are other symptoms (how do the eyes look? do the scales appear to be "dry"?)

I would initially say you might have some aggression problems, but that is pretty unlikely given your inhabitants.
