There are four categories of diseases: Bacterial Infections, Fungal Infections, and External and Internal Parasites.
Bacterial Infections
These are characterized by decrease in activity, color loss, bloated body, sores, abscesses, red streaks, skin inflammation, difficulty in breathing, and bulging eyes.
Fungal Infections
These can be developed as a result of an existing illness. When a fish is suffering from a fungal infection, it is darting here and there, scratching, and there is a presence of cotton-like tufts on skin, mouth, or eyes.
