What is wrong with Balloon Blue Ram?

Hi Guys,

1 of my Balloon Ram suddenly developed a white swollen bum last evening.

My fish has died last night and I was too sad to take a pic of him.

But now I want to find out what went wrong.

Thanks.

It sounds like an ulcer. We're sorry that you lost him.

Hi COBettaCouple,

It is really odd. Before dinner, he was ok. Nothing unusual.
Dinner probably took only half an hour.
After which I went to check on the aquarium and that is when I spotted him with the bum.
U think its from a fight?

It's possible, but more likely that it just popped up. We've had those pop up on platys before.

Hi Guys,

so odd...I just did a water change 2 days ago.
every fish was well b4 water change and still well after water change until today.

one of my balloon rams suddenly became inactive.
he just sits right at the bottom of the main tank with his body constantly tilting to 1 side.
every time he tries to straighten himself up, it looks like he has to put in a lot of effort.
he has lost color in his eyes.

I have isolated him but can't figure out what went wrong.
this is so frustrating.
