I have little to no clue how to help him and I really down want him to die :( . I couldn’t get any good photos right now, but can someone please give me advice or a way to help him?

What else can I do?

This is just breaking my heart. I thought these were just tumors but now I’m not sure. He’s got these bumps with a bit of a white layer on top that doesn’t look fuzzy like fungus. It’s on his bottom fins and side of his forehead. I’ve done salt dips, methylene blue, tannins, Paraguard, Maracyn and Maracyn 2, Kanaplex. I don’t want to give up on the little guy because he is still very active and swimming around. He’s got diamond eye and looks like popeye and maybe some finrot. Those come and go. His water parameters and temp is perfect. I’ve been in this hobby for a while but I’ve never seen anything like this. What do you think this is and what could I do about it?

Oto died suddenly, brown gut

Hi, I just had my first fish death in my 60L. I've had 6 otos and 13 pygmy corys (+ shrimp) for a few months at this point so I thought I was in the clear, but just 10-15 mins ago noticed one of them flapping around near the surface with a very brown patchy belly. I immediately netted it out to see if I could help but it died shortly after.

Making a post (pictures attached) to ask if anyone knows what this might be, gut blockage, disease, etc? And if I should take any precautions for the remaining otos or the pygmy cories (all 5 oto bellies look fine at the moment).

params:

0 chlorine

0 nitrate, 0 nitrite, 0.25 ammonia (I'm working on it..)

150GH, 180KH

8.0 pH

Thanks for any advice..

Help needed / sick fish

Hello

I urgently require some feedback or assistance.
I have a tank and today one of my guppies was laying on sand not able to stand straight and unfortunately it looks like he is now not savable.
I also now noticed that one of my rams look absolutely bad. Can someone please take a look and let me know what I could do to help. Other fish don’t seem to have any symptoms.
The ram I’m considered about seems to have bigger eyes and has completely lost their colour. Last picture. I can’t get a better picture because it’s hiding and I genuinely can’t find it rn

Also, he is swimming a bit weird

Is there any medication recommended ?

BTW water levels seem to be stable and ok

Something Is Wrong

My Kubotai Rasboras were just introduced into my tank yesterday. This fish hasn’t acted like this until after feeding. This morning after I fed them one of my rasboras has been swimming lazily at the surface and constantly gulping. I called my LFS and described my parameters and they said they were perfect. Can someone identify what’s the issue and how I can fix it?

Diagnose a gourami

This little guy has had a rough couple days. He was being picked on in his original tank, so I moved him to another and this raised white spot showed up. He’s now in a little quarantine tank but I can’t figure out what it is. It’s in the same spot he was being nipped at so I thought maybe a fungal infection? But I’m also paranoid it’s Ich as it seems like I always end up with fish that have it, but it looks different from when my bettas had it. Any suggestions are appreciated!!
