I have a male red guppy and is in a mixed community tank, it appears that he is not eating and his mouth looks a little bit white (like a white film) is this mouthrot? and how do you treat this?

I have most meds on hand but i don't know which one to use!!!

ammonia is 0
nitrite is 0
nitrate is 12.5
ph 7.4

Guppies do not respond well to fungus meds...

By the time the mouth fungus appears and the fish stops eating, the fungus is advanced and not much can be done.

A mild med used for treating ich, Rid Ich Plus, can be dosed but I can't guarantee positive results.
