if it gets larger or eats away the tail, then you ought to panic... Not really but you know what I mean

Craig

Butterfly

it was weird though she was so active and everythin it was only 1 white spot !! i dont think it was ich! is there any other explanations on what it could b? ?

Craig

i also when i get new fish ,when i put them in, i cover my tank with a towel so its in complete darkness 2 reduce stress 4 the fish but i cover my tank every night b4 i go 2 bed so the tank is in complete darkness it also keeps the temperature the same on cold nights, lol im away 2 do homework!!!

They should be fine.
Have you checked to see what the ph at your fish store is? That would let you know how much you need to acclimate your fish when they get home.
