Do you change the water in your aquarium regularly?
Were there any ammonia and nitrite level spikes in your aquarium?
Was there a large drop in water temperature?
Are there any aggressive tankmates in the aquarium?
Dropsy disease is caused by a very common Aeromonas bacteria that is present in most aquarium habitats. However, the bacteria will only lead to a serious infection in a fish with a compromised immune system. Poor water quality is one of the most common reasons why fish may suffer stress and become susceptible to Aeromonas bacteria. Avoid having poor quality water by regular water changes.
Dropsy disease is caused by a very common Aeromonas bacteria that is present in most aquarium habitats. However, the bacteria will only lead to a serious infection in a fish with a compromised immune system. Ammonia and nitrate level changes may cause stress in fish and compromise their immune system. Avoid it by keeping an eye on ammonia and nitrate levels, watching them to not rise above the preferred levels.
Dropsy disease is caused by a very common Aeromonas bacteria that is present in most aquarium habitats. However, the bacteria will only lead to a serious infection in a fish with a compromised immune system. A drastic drop in water temperature is often a cause of stress in fish and can make them more susceptible to Aeromonas bacteria. Avoid this problem by regularly watching if the heating system in the aquarium works properly.

Aggressive behavior can cause stress in fish and can make them more susceptible to Aeromonas bacteria. If you notice some of the fish being aggressive in the tank, it might be best to transfer them into a separate aquarium.

Sreten null
Hi! I’m Sreten Filipović. I graduated from the Faculty of Agriculture at the University of Belgrade, with a master's degree in Environmental Protection in Agricultural Systems. I’ve worked as a researcher at Finland's Natural Resources Institute (LUKE) on a project aimed at adapting south-western Finland to drought episodes. I founded a consulting agency in the field of environment and agriculture to help farmers who want to implement the principles of sustainability on their farms. I’m also a founding member of the nonprofit organization Ecogenesis from Belgrade whose main goal is non-formal education on the environment and ecology. In my spare time, I like to write blog posts about sustainability, the environment, animal farming, horticulture, and plant protection. I’ve also published several science-fiction short stories.
