my fish has become sick the past few days but i dont know what is wrong. he has red blemishes all over him and his eyes are red rimmed. i tested the water and the only thing that was outside the normal range was that the water is hard... but i dont think hard water would do this to my fish.
can anybody help me?
I'm not really one to try and answer a medical question. But I did a search and it sounded like it might be hemoraghic septicemia, if this is what it is, It is caused by a bacterial infection in his bloodstream. First change 50% of his tank water. Also add aquarium salt to his tank. Follow the instructions on the label.
oh thank you that does sound very similar to what is wrong with my fish. sorry i am new to this site so was unsure where to post it. but i will post it there now.
thanks again
