I've had gold laser corys now for a while with no problems until this afternoon i noticed one of them looked rather distressed and really gasping or thats how it looked...on closer inspection it looks like it has a big lump on its chest and 2 blister looking lumps on its underside of the tummy and tail.
What is it and what can i do?

Here's some pictures the blisters seem to have gone but the lump is still there, at the moment the poor thing is laying upside down on the floor of the tank. You can just see the lump under its chest     What does anyone think it is? |

So sorry to see this Nat. No idea what it could be I'm afraid. I hope that someone can give you some info/advice x

looks like a growth or a severe stomach infection? you could whip it out of the tank and put it in a medicated tank or salted tank and see if that helps? I ve always found unfortunately that by the time something fairly serious is discovered with tropical fish, as they as so delicate that its often too late but i do hope that something works for you!

As you said Charlie it's usually too late the poor thing died that evening i was gutted they are beautiful fish at least i have an idea at what it could've been. I have 1 left now. |
