Wonder if anyone can maybe shed some light on a question I have...
Is there a disease that can cause fish to waste away or not grow? Two weeks ago, I had a rummi-nose tetra die. It went very thin, almost torpedo like. It was one of 5 which I bought all together. Out of the remaining 4, one is very large, two are of a medium size, and one is quite small (and I am sure it's going the same was as the fish that died a few weeks back). They were all roughly the same size when I bought them.
Additionally, I bought 3 Clown Loaches. Again, all were roughly the same size, two of which have grown to a nice size, whilst the third is still very small, and I am sure he's either getting small, or not growing at all.
So, is this some sort of disease which affects the fish, and if so, is there any known cure?
I reguarly test the water, Nitrites are between 0-.25ppm and the Ph is around 6.8-7.2. Any help appreciated, either by a post on here, or to dave.parker@progenita.net
Thanks
Dave
