Two days ago I noticed some cotton looking fungus growing around the mouth of my Eureka Red Cichlid so I immediately moved him into my 10 Gallon QT Hospital tank and started dosing with Pimafix and Melafix together. Yesterday one of my Yellow Labs in the big tank had some redness around his gills so I dosed the whole tank to try and stop a major outbreak and today it has become sores on his body which leads me to believe its Columnaris not Fungus:jaw-dropping:
I Lowered the temperature to 75 degrees raised the salt to 3% over the last 48 hours and changed medication to Maracyn and Maracyn Two. The Eureka Red is looking better but the Yellow lab isnt showing any improvement, I am surprised to see improvement in the red this early and hope to see improvement in the Yellow over the next few days but he is pretty bad.
My water parameters are perfect Ammonia 0, Nitrite 0, Nitrate just over 10, PH 7.9 and I do 20% water changes every second day using Prime
I included a couple pictures of the Yellow Lab, Do you think he can recover or is it too late for him? Should I euthanize him? Is there anything else I should be doing? This is the first time I have ever had any Disease and hopefully the last
