Callatya Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 Throw up a list of the signs and a rough timeline There are a few things that can look much like NTD, so many fish illnesses have overlapping symptoms. I suspect that the ones that suggest Protozin were probably dealing with something that looked similar, but it is hard to say without lab testing to confirm.

Bettarazzi Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 How old is the tank? How large? How long was it running before you put the neons in? What kind of filter? I lost some neons last year to what I thought at the time was NTD but I'm now pretty sure I added them before the tank was sufficiently cycled.

Jules Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 I was in a LFS recently (In SA), and i asked him if he had any neon tetras ( to put in my new tank). He said they weren't stocking them atm, as there is some sort epidemic going around atm with them.... I was at this shop about a week and half ago.. However i went to another LFS a couple days ago , that had a tank full of them and hadn't heard of anything up with them.. I didn't buy any just in case. I have a couple of them in my small tank, but i have had them for ages, and they seem to be ok :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
