J that looks more like fin rot to me.

Thanks guys. I have never seen ick or had ick so I assumed it was the diagnosis. Water came in at 69 degrees so I thought maybe the fish had a bad reaction. I removed it right after posting the video and gonna medicate today after work.

That's pretty low temp so much for heat packs..

[cu0ngsayz]

I would just medicate the whole tank!!!

[cu0ngsayz]

Yeah, you'd do that because you're beta like that. Beta-max Cuong.

Reputable sellers are human and can make mistakes. Kinda like how I was given 1m/3f "Macro Dine" and we all know how that went...

Oh what happen to the fish? I wanna hear what happen.

Are you treating the tank yet?

Here ya go. The fish isn't in the tank.

[New_Cichlid11]

dude treat the whole tank are you really not gonna treat the other fish? just because they look ok doesnt mean that they are. In the wild fish have certain bacteria and parasites naked to the eye, when they are moved onto the aquarium these problems can come up. Ive always treated all fish i newly acquired with meds just to be on the safe side. IMO removing that fish from the colony isnt very smart man, if they were my fish i treat the whole colony for a piece of mind. But since they are not i have no say..

I say treat the whole tank with prazipro

Thanks for the advice, but I'm not putting medicine into these fish unless I see the need to. I'm keeping clean water and good food so we'll see how it goes. Stronger fish have better immune systems so if I have weak fish I want them to die.

Doesn't look like it is Luis. So why are we telling him what the disease is and how to treat? The sick fish should die right?
