I have six discus in a tank and all appear to be getting very sick and I don't know quite what to do. About a month ago one of my discus starting losing its color and had these transparent spots. The discus died shortly thereafter.

Now ALL of my discus are going through the same health issues. The fins start to rot away with a moldy white area and colored areas on the discus are starting to turn white with black spots and look a little shredded. The one that is worse off (the red spotted one) is hiding in a corner and slipping quickly. The blue one's spot is now completely white.

Can anyone offer any advice?!

Along time ago I bought Metronidazole and a Dewormer (Piperazine) - would that help. Thanks guys!
