Long story short.
Jan 07 my 330 gallon had a sick (Sail fin) introduced. It was from someones home tank and not quarantined. It spread ich to the rest of the fish. Fish were dropping like flies. The FS people said nothing was wrong and ignored the spots. The FS people were fired and another group took over. They said
copper was the only cure. They dumped
copper in which did clean up the ich but caused another problem. C. Bacteria exponential growth. I was on vacation for 3 weeks in feb-march. When I got back the bacteria growth was astounding. After cleaning up the tank (lots of loose algae like debris stirred up. A few days later our Clarki started acting strange.
She would just hang in the corner at the bottom or something at the top. External inspection show normal coloring and maybe a slight bulge in her chin area. Maybe slight exopthalmos (popeye) but very slight to none.
I took her out a few weeks ago and treated the tank. (55 gallon). She is still alive but is not acting like she use to. Still likes those corners. Will not go after food. I put a veggie clip in and she must eat while I am not around, if not she would have starved to death.
I did the RiD-ICh+ and then Melafin ab solution.
Not sure what to do. She acts like she is blind. She will swim across the tank the bump into the glass, like she does not see it coming.
