Sick L201

Post by Roseline17 »

I have a group of juvenile L201 that I bought 3 wks ago. A few days ago three of them lost almost all their tail fins (it looked like the fins were rotting away). Two of them died, the third is hanging on. The fourth looks healthy but is a smaller one that does not bother the other siblings. There are no other fish in that tank (15 gallon, planted).
Does anybody have an idea why what is going on? All the other fish in my fishroom are healthy and have no disease, thus I am puzzled what is going on.
Thanks for your suggestions!
