Black moors

Question
I have 2 black moors and 1 fancy goldfish, they have whitespot at the moment and I have started treatment for this. One of the black moors is losing it's scales and is now nearly brown but the other moor wont leave it alone, it keeps attacking it all the time. I think the one being attacked is going to die. Is there anything I can do to save it?

Answer
Angie,

Yes remove it from that tank and place it in the hospital tank as soon as possible. Once in the hospital tank you can treat it with the same medication you are treating them with now. Make sure you are doing 25% weekly water changes as goldfish are very messy and produce a lot of ammonia. Make sure they are in the right size house. With the three of them, they should be in nothing less that a 75 gallon tank. Good luck with your fish.
