    It looks like an ugly balloon after I changed the water (1/3) & set-up of my aquaplant tank. don't wanna see it die, any help, please!!! (I'm 100% sure it's not pregnant!)

    Any scales sticking out? If yes, its dropsy.

    If no, could be eggbound or some internal parasites/bacteria.

    Thankx for the advice!
    Oh, my! Yeah, it happened to some scales under the chest. (about 10 scales, 5 on each side)
    Dropsy!? If my guess's right, I should ... throw it into the dustbin ... Is there any other alternative?![]

    I also recall now! a few days ago, one glowlight tetra in the same tank died with bloated eyes! And just now I saw that some of the black neon tetras have the white spot! Is it the start of an epidemic? []
