Hello,
My electric blue is about 3 years old and he is the biggest in the tank. This morning I found that my plecos wheir chewing on him as wheir the other fish. He was swimming odd and was white and bitten. I have never experienced this before so I called my local aquarium store and the clerk told me I should quarantine him or uthenize him. He is barely moving now and is flipped on his backside and his eyes are clouded. I used some melafix and salt. Will he survive this ordeal or would I be better to remove him. I don't really want to mix any medications with the other fish in the tank and I dont have a substitute tank available. I will try to fnd an inexpensive one if I can, I hate to lose this fish he was my favorite.
