Hi,
Up until last week i had 1 goldfish in a 30 gallon tank which hadnt been cycled, this was due to my lack of knowledge of fish keeping, i then done abit of research and got some advice from john who is on the forum, it took my tank over 2 months to cycle and i done all the necessary things to keep stress levels to a minimum and the goldfish appeared to be quite happy and looked great.
Last week i added 2 more fish, a bristol shabunkin and a comet goldfish as i didnt just want to keep 1 fish and wanted to give my goldfish some company.
Everything seemed fine until about 3 days ago when i noticed that my goldfish (the original one i had) started acting strange, basically not engaging and just sitting under the filters, i then noticed that he had some white fluffy stuff growin on his scales on his sides near the back of his body, i have now also noticed that when i tested my water there is a reading of ammonia (around 0.5ppm) my ph is 7.2, my nitrites are 0 and my nitrates are quite low.
Today i bought a product called tetra goldmed which basically treats the majority of goldfish diseases, i done a 50% water change and added the correct ammount of the medication.
im just really concerned about my goldfish and dont really no what else to do.
does anyone have any suggestions on what else to do i really dont want to lose him
regards
Joe
