Ok I have had this bleeding heart tetra for three years that last survivor of the last school I had and was planning to build up the school. See my sig for rest of fish in 36 gallon. All the fish that are in this tank were QT'd slowly for a month each with no problems until I notice tonight my adult bleeding heart tetra with ragged fins and a couple of white spots on it's body is hard to tell but also looks like reddenned areas on the body and the fish are picking on him as if they know he's sick. I just recently added 3 new bleeding heart tetras to the tank they just got off QT and are healthy.
I am so upset all the fish have been fine until tonight. My question is obviously gotta get this fish out of the main tank tonight. I have a makeshift bucket approx 10 gallons that I can use as another QT for this sick fish or should I use the 3.5 L container? Right now my regular 10 g all glass aquarium is being used to QT a male gouramie he was to be the last fish to add and then I would be done. Am so angry right now. It is only one fish affected I have a heater I can use and a bubbler meds I can use that I have in the house aquarisol, pimafix and fungus cure. I also have aquarium salt. Need help on what to do can anyone help? I tried to take some pics but you can't really see the white spots in the pic they are very faint the fish is not covered with them I can only see two. The fish is active so that is one good thing just need advise for treatment and what container to use since only one fish is affected. Please need answer ASAP! Thanks!:nilly: Water parameters are fine just did a wc recently due for another one this Sunday.
