Question
my fish tank started to get cloudy not long ago.  but when it did, my fish started to die.  first it was my danio, then my platy, and now it was my guppy.  also my tetra seems to have a disease oof some srt.  it is white and fuzzy like.  i am applying melafix right now but am afraid it will die too.  i don't want all my fish to die so please help me ... thnaks!!

Answer
Ok stop adding melafix because what your tetra has is called fungus and melafix can't treat that. To treat the fungus i would use "jungles fungus Clear" and that should cure it. Have you checked your water levels ( nitrite, nitrate, ammonia, P.h., alkalinity, and hardness). If you don't have a test kit for those things i reccomend getting one because one of the levels might be high or low which could kill your fish.

For the cloudy water i would use "Jungles Cloud Clear" and it should clear your tank up. If your tank is fairly new that could also be a reason your tank is cloudy.

What size is your tank? What fish do you have in it? Is your tank filtered? Is your tank heated? Please answer the questions so i can help you further?
