Rainbowfish and disease for me has been synonymous. While I haven't lost a
rainbow (boesmani, turquise, trif, etc..) for about 3 years, they have
contracted every possible disease during that span.

Right now they seem to have columnaris. Not long ago, they had fin rot, one
has pop-eye, one had the red splotchy streaks (bacteria) and they've
certainly had ich a number of times.

So far, (cross my fingers), they have not developed TB.

Have others had so many outbreaks? My other aquariums inhabited by other
non-rainbowfish always go disease-free for years...

Like I've mentioned before, I think some of these were caused by mistakes on
my part, but sheesh, it seems excessive...

To my experience, yes, but similar as a few others. They seem to be very
sensitive if their personal optimum situation changes, like sudden
temperature changes.

Would you say that rainbowfish are more likely to develop fish TB than
other tropicals in the hobby?

Thanks,
