Please help me! We are losing our fish left right and center! I had no idea what it was or what was causing ut but I have now noticed that our feather finned catfish has a huge gaping hole in his back. Its white and sunken in.. almost like something with a perfectly circular biite.. however he isnt the only one with a problem. These wierd white plague has appeared on the tetra and is eating away at their funs and backs just like the catfish and there seems to be an odd mucus appearing on the fish! its all this visable damage happened over the course of today! Anyone got any idea?

Do a million water changes. Abot 40-50% per day and get yourself some antifungal medicine as quick as possible. Follow the destructions carefully and make sure you don't panic and overdose them. Is there any large fish that could bite them or suck on them (lol like sucking loaches or algae eaters)

They can stay dormant unless the water quality declined. You need to do heavy waterchanges.

tank size? and what fish, how many and what size. Also when was the last water change you did. What filter do you use, how often do you clean. and get your water tested

what are your test levels?... the fish dying is secondary to why it has happened. are your nitrites high? as was said you probably have a fungal infection going on in there... if you don't solve the problem it will likely come back with new fish... fungal medicine allong with water changes are in order as was said above... but finding out the cause is paramount.

always try to desribe your set-up when asking about aquatics... rotten plant matter can bring on a fungal infection along with weakened, stressed fish.
