BellaOnline Forums Home and Garden Fish new sickness =(

hey guys.. it just never ends..
sorry to keep bothering you and picking your brains..
my plankat male was bloated for ages i thought it was constipation.. i treied to give him peas and get him to get it all out.. now it looks like one big cyst.. like one big gigantic pimple..

its in the community tank in its little compartment, should i take it out and treat it with salt and betta fix?

i have no i dea why they're all getting sick..

thanx...

Kei,

I agree with Emg. Bettafix, salt and warmth for your guy. I hope he makes it. It seems like the cysts are a really bad sign. Sending healing thoughts your way!

thanx EMG and NAN for your lovely thoughts, seems like he's looking okay, the cyst has decreased in size and just looks like a little pimple. looks like bettafix is doing its job.
as for my other poor girl she's lost most of her fins . looks like she won't make it.

thanx again, much love

blessings..
