OMG.... Flexy you poor thing.

Have you been to the disease section for this? If not, you may want to move your pic over there with full detail on your water parameters and symtoms.. If you have, I would post this pic with your thread... I am no pro with diseases because of the lack of experience with trouble (knock on wood).... Is it the meds that are making the tank so cloudy? I personally would go with a 20 gal hosipital with the number of fish you have in there. Depending on their size of course....

The best of luck to you, but I really do believe you would be better off with the pros....

No filter in sick tank, so Flexy must be doing large daily water changes with aged water.

No filter there, water is fine.

Flexy, teach me what antibiotics do to the water to keep ammonia and nitrite down. I have never heard that one before.

Flexy,
I agree with Mr. Matt on this. I am all ears.

Well, no food keeps water clean.

OK, That will be your little secrete i guess.
For anyone else i would strongly recomend doing waterchanges. The meds only add to the water quality issue making it all the more important that they be done. Usually a minimum of 50% every other day or daily depending on the med of choice.
Good luck with the treatment Flexy.... your going to need it, but then again you can always blame the disease when all your fish are on deaths door and not the water. LOL
