If you can post pictures some might be able to help you. I am not good at diseases.

Hi Rob, Sorry about your fish. You might want to post under fish and plants section under the fish disease heading. There are some pretty smart people here that should be able to help.

sounds like fish fungus rob, it is treatable, it is usually in the water and the fish will become infected if there immune system is low
