Hello, I am currently raising 5, 5 inch red belly piranha in a 75 Gallon tank and they seem to be doing fine other than the fact the they rarely swim to the other side of the tank and stay in one corner in the back and wont eat. I bought them with the tank and the previous owner took very poor care of them, They had several different illness's and parasite. Ive finally nursed them back to health but now they dont seem to be eating. Right now ive been trying to feed them goldfish and they arent eating. One piranha also looks like it has bite marks taken out of it, Before this is had mold or something growing on it and now it seems like its entire body is rotting. What should I do to solve this? Ive tryed chemicals, Hospital tank, Small doses of salt.. Everything I can think of, The other 4 seem to be doing fine other than them not eating and the rotting piranha. What do I do?
