Hi,

I got an ocean green which looks very sick at the moment. It refuses to eat and the body turn white and pale. (Not dark body with white patches)

I have been treating the tank with Wardly Promethyasul for about 10 days already, but doesn't seem to be working.

Anyone know what's up with him? And which med. should I use?

any chance of getting a picture of the fish so we can see.

A white body is something that i havent come across as yet apart from fungus so im interested to see what it looks like. Maybe it might be velvet as i would be unsure as the what effect the colour of the fish has with the colour of hte velvet bug. I read that velvet can cover the whole body of fish so it would be nice to see how much is actually discoulored etc.

I have no real ideas sorry but i pic might prompt someone to remember seeing it before
