It started all after i introduced a new rock and a plant in my Malawi tank.
After a while(3-4 months) my Pseudotropheus zebra died with black spots on
their heads,then the same happened to the livingstoni; now I have the
Melanochromis auratus and 5 leleupi with the same black spots.
I would like to know what can cause this?
Now I have the survived fishes in a different tank, whereas the original
tank is empty.
How I have to clean the infected tank, the rocks and the sand?
Can I put again the same cichlid fish in it, once it is clean, or maybe all
will start up again?
There is a way I can cure my fishes?
Thanks for any help
