Sick Yellow Lab

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

I've come home today to a sick yellow lab. I have a 3ft, 120L tank with 3 labs, 2 bumblebees, 2 blue acei (m/f) & 2 bristlenose - all juveniles. One yellow is looking pale and is swimming at the top of the tank. Her eyes are bulging with a red tinge on her scales behind them and her ventral fins aren't moving. She didn't eat when I just fed them. There has been no agro in the tank but one of the bumblebees is starting to have a nip at her.

I have checked the water: 25 degrees, PH 8.2, Amm 0, nitrites 0, but nitrates 10-20. I performed a 40L water change 2 days ago so concerned the nitrates so high.

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Woogie

I'm thinking it might be too late for my little yellow. She has only one side fin now and her tail fin is tattered. I think I may need to put her out of her misery.

Any advice on what may have happened and if I need to take any action on my tank (esp the raised nitrate levels).
