Enteric Septicemia in guppies?

[lihairden]

I've got guppies that have been acting weird lately. A lot of the time they swim around like they've got Parkinson's or something. Could it be enteric septicemia? I found a dead fish yesterday that didn't have a head and I assumed that my pleco had a snack. I have noticed this more in the males...could it just be a different mating dance than they usually do? I've been looking for more info about this and didn't come up with much else beside what I've already said.

Could this affect my pleco?

What can I do to determine if it is enteric septicemia and what do I do to get rid of it?

(hopefully there aren't many typos...2 of my cats decided that now would be a good time to play lol)

Check their mouths for mouth rot. I had guppies that were swimming like that and kept dying, then I finally discovered that before they died, they all developed grayish mouths that seemed to be slowly wasting away.
