Hi I'm a fairly experienced fish owner who has a 29 gallon aquarium. I keep the temperature at a constant 75 degrees F and I have a good filter that I keep the filter cartridge changed consistently. I do monthly 25% water changes when i syphon. I also have an air bubbler for extra oxygen and I keep several healthy aquarium plants. All my levels are normal (nitrate, nitrite, PH, ammonia) but every few months I seem to lose a fish to popeye! It's only one fish that gets it (and eventually dies) ever 2 months or so and the medicine doesn't work even though I take out my carbon!! I don't know what else to do. Overall I've lost 2 german rams and now discovered my dalmatian platy has it so bad he looks like a telescope goldfish!
I'm at my wits end. My angel fish is my biggest and oldest fish and has never shown signs of illness, but he doesn't pick on my other fish so i don't think he's stressing them.
heeeeelp
