    Last week I lost 3 cory sterbai that I had for 1 year. I din't know the caused of it and now one of my ancistrus snowflake not looking very responsive. I have done a couple of water change since then.
    I wonder what medication I should use to cure whatever sickness that is likely present in the tank. The cories that died dind't show any sign of sickness. One of them that is still sick is unable to balance itself. The didn't have white spot or any unusual sign of their appearance.

    ikan, did you by chance introduced new fish/fishes to the tank ?. Is the Ancistrus's tummy sunken or bloated ? think it could be internal parasites, I usually treat mine with " OceanFree 3rd Generation medication for internal parasites ", not too sure if this is available in Oz ! anyway you can check other brand of medication, hope they have a speedy recovery !

    Sterazin is the waterlife product for treating internal parasites... but read though the info thoroughly, I think some fishes (stated on the packing) do not take sterazin well.
