Is It Sick?

Look at this rainbow fish. Is it sick? What is the thing below its mouth? I need to figure it out and decide whether I need to quarantine it.

BTW, I lost a red rainbow last week. It hasn't been eating anything for almost a month, and I didn't know what I could do to save it. I just watched it become weaker and weaker and die. So bad.



Cloudy Water

The water has got quite cloudy since last week. I have tried to give less food and changed some water. It is a little better now but still not back to clear yet.

Amonia, Nitrite and Nitrate levels are all normal, and it is not green water caused by algae. I guess it is just bacteria blossom and I just need a little bit patience to wait for it to become clear again.
