Unhappy HELP with our Platies !!!!!
Ok, so we have 7 Platys. Yesterday when we got home from work we noticed that a few of them had all of their fins clamped. and were barely swimming.
Now today ALL of them are doing it we we have NO idea why :-(

Results of our water testing from the other day ...
Ph-7... Ammonia 0, Nitrite 0, Nitrate was... 2.5? whatever the color above zero is. We do weekly PWCs.

Everything has been great until yesterday!

Any ideas??? Please help we dont want to loose them.. we have had them for so long

They are in a 36 gallon Bowfront that has 3 neons and two headlight tail lights in it. And Otos. Everyone has been together for a very long time. Why would they all of a sudden be doing that?

Hope someone can help :-(

Do a 50% water change! Many things are fixed by a simple water change. Temporary in most cases, but still....
