I have a purple firefish I received from DrReefs back in early March who was QT’d by them. I received this fish healthy, swimming normal around the water column, eating everything it could.
Recently (2-3wks ago) she started swimming more upright without much tail fin and resting on the sand frequently. I also noticed a small white blotch on her tail as seen in the 1st video. She was still eating just fine so I thought it may be constipation as I read can happen so I fed her a small piece of cooked pea but nothing changed. Fast forward now she is not eating for the past 3 days and is much more immobile on the sandbed, barely even tried to swim away when I transferred to QT. The blotch hasn’t gotten worse however.
I’ve dosed some general cure for now, is there anything else I can do for her?
