something is wrong!!

[rinmouse]

Hello, I already posted in "Shy or something wrong" but since I've decided something is wrong, no one has had any ideas... I am now down to two msobos, see shy or something wrong for details... what do I do? is there some meds I should try? why are my other fish thriving and these guys aren't?

should I medicate with something??? Just leave it and see if it happens to any of the others? I've never had anything like this happen before!

Hard to really say why your losses are so species specific. Could be any possibility (i.e., poor genetics with that particular group of fish, or maybe they arrived with some sort of pathogen that due to unknown factors the othe fish are more resistant to, etc).

If possible, relocate the remaining msobo's to a quarantine tank. No meds (unless clear disease indicators manifest), but place them under observation for a couple of weeks.
