Help!.. Genocide, Julidochromis self destructus

I saw the strigy feces and swollen abdo but only on the Zebra that died.
Not on the Julies.

Well, it's all conjecture, but once the gills are damaged, they remain
damaged, so death could occur even after the ammonia spike has resolved.
The death of your second fish raises another possibility though. It could
be that the stress of the ammonia/nitrite spikes have rendered them
vulnerable to internal paracites. In some fish, this manifests as a
bloated stomach. In general, symptoms are white stringy feces, listless
and/or withdrawn behavior, lack of appetite and swollen abdomens. Have you
seen any of these symptoms, particularly the white stringy feces, in the
julies before they died?

To be really sure of what is killing them, one would need to do a necropsy
on the bodies with a microscope to examine the tissue. If you know of
biologists in your area, you might see if one is willing to do so.
