Are the white spots overfeeding or temperature related ?
– 03/27/06 Hi! I need some help. Yesterday three of my fish died of Ick or Ich. (White spots) They were fine for a month now but recently just stopped being their selves and started developing the white spots. I used the Ick Treatment (blue liquid added to tank). I have a 1 1/2 foot tank and there are (or were) 15 fish. 4 Guppies (now 3) 4 Platies (now 2) 1 Siamese fighter Male 2 Swordtails (1 jumped out when retrieving guppy babies before they were eaten) 1 Algae Eater 1 Glass Fish 1 Mollie A beautiful array of fish and wonderful to watch. I need to know are their deaths related to over feeding (I feed them twice a day, or temperature related? My tank is set at 26 C. Since one of the death of a blue platy, one of the swordtails has started being a happy and swimming all around like he used to before the platy arrived, was he bullied of felt threatened? He is back to being the father of the tank! Thanks and keep up the good work !
