My female apisto.cacatuoides died yesterday. She had no visible sign 
of
disease. I did check ammonia, nitrate, nitrite.. all`s fine.  Still 
have
the male in the same tank.  He stays on the  bottom, hides alot, don`t
see him eating and does have Clamped fins.
Is this some sort of bacterial infection?  Is there anything I can do?

Next time try Formalite 1 from Aquatronics. Should do the trick.
Prevent and controls the following:
Protozoan parasites on Fish
Ich(Ichthyophthiris)
Velvet
Oodinium
Shimmy
Cryptocaryon
Collapsed Fins and Listlessness
White Body Patches
White Spots
Trichodina
Chilodonella
Do not use on scaleless FISH!!!
Hope this might help.
