SageBear 1 Posted April 19, 2015 Hi guys, need some help with a very strange and yucky issue.. We got two new teeny tiny blue orandas on Friday, we knew one was sick when we bought him but it wasn't until we got him home that we realized how bad it was. We got there as they were being unboxed and brought him home in the bag they came from the supplier in. He is very hollowed, his back end is pretty wasted and he tends to float with his head slightly down. Still relatively active, and is eating. His gills are very inflamed, they are full to the point of not closing with what looks like white eggs?? I haven't been able to see anything on google that looks like it. It really looks like roughly 0.5mm eggs are crammed in there, as many as possible. The other one is just too darn perfect, great shape, slight fin deterioration which I'm assuming is from crappy water at the suppliers? We're doing 90% water changes every other day, we've added aquarium-safe salt at 0.3%. Our parameters s/b great (?) The filters they're in with are two fully established and cycled sponge filters, with the every other day water changes I haven't been bothering to test params. I haven't tested the tap water, we treat all water going in with Prime. He's in a 20gal qt tank with the little one he came with, they are both about 2" long including the tail. Super tiny. We're starting prazi today, treating both the qt and our big guy as he is also new to us (just starting a goldy tank, we're apparently suckers for sick fish.. yay for the underdog!) Please please please does anyone have any advice on what this might be?? I haven't found anything even remotely similar through google, or google images. Totally baffled! I do have a video, but i can't figure out how to post it 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
