dying fish! HELP!

okay ive posted in the fish memorials section about the odd poisoning that happened to one of my tanks.. i pulled the fish and had them in fresh clean water and restarted my tank.. i lost a lot of my babies because of this strange poisoning (still dont know what it was)..

everything has been running great and all the fish seemed fine... until this morning i was doing my daily checkups and noticed that one of my remaining glowlite tetras was swimming sort of strange.. i didnt think much of it because sometimes they just act weird.. i think for attention

i had left for a few hours and came home to find my fish swimming in torpedo rolls.. and upside down like it didnt know what to do. i knew that i needed to pull the fish.. so its currently in a hospital tank with a parasite treatment, stress coat, and vita-chem. i dont know exactly what is wrong but i figured that if it is something with a parasite that i should start treatment right away.

is it the neon disease? do glowlites get that? they are kindof the same thing right?

in advance!

Sorry to hear thing are not going so well,
What are the water perams for temp PH, Ammonia, Nitrite, Nitrate?

water perams are all fine, normal temp of 78 blah blah blah.. its all the average cup of tea here. they get a mixed diet of tetramin flake, wardley flake, betta color flake, betta pellets, live black worms, thawed frozen bloodworms, sinking bottomfeeder wafers, algae wafers and blanched zucchini...

im not a beginner at fish keeping or anything.. im just curious if i can save my little guy. such as giving some sort of medicine to treat an illness that someone else has experienced..

I'm hoping it's parasites.. I'd be doing the same basic treatment that you are with him. I can't think of another illness that's treatable that can cause the symptoms he's showing.
