My most recent batch of fish was transferred to the sterile tank for General Cure treatment and observation. Yesterday, I did the water change + 2nd dose of General Cure. I'm noticing today that one of the yasha gobies is clamping its fins and swimming unusually. Spine injury? Something else internal? I've already gone through a week and a half of medicated LRS Fish Frenzy during copper.

 
That is odd compared to how the other is swimming. Is it swimming into the flow at all? Maybe try a freshwater dip to check for flukes.

Figured flukes would already be working out of their system after the General Cure treatments. It may already may be a little too late. Found him upside down this morning. When I went to pick him up, he did flip over, though he is now having trouble "balancing" to stay upright. Really sucks to see [emoji29]

Hoping for the best. Has he been eating?
 
It seems there's something off that's affecting gobies in the qt tank for GC treatment and observation. Their fins get clamped up, where their tail gets shaped to a point. Stomach also gets sunken in. Not sure what could be afflicting them/rest of the tank.

Any ideas? This is the one that was still swimming well 3 days ago and it's now starting to wither away like the other I asked about earlier... Noticing it starting to happen on the Hi-fin goby as well....
