What are these spots on this rainbow? None of the other two rainbows have it, nor do any of the other fish. This fish has had these spots for months. I’ve treated the tank with erythromycin, ich-x, general cure, with no effect. 65 gallon tank, nitrate 0, nitrite 5ish, ammonia 0. Been running...

Okay, thank you. Glad to know I’m at least not neglecting a treatment I should be doing.

Here’s the rainbow. This one definitely has something that is not like the tetra’s issue. 1733706522 Oh, really? So nothing I can do and it’s not going to end well for the fish?

Is this Lymphocystis? Why does it seem to not be going away?

Ugh. So I let it run its course? Or will it always be in the tank now?

I have been trying to get rid of whatever is causing white spots on my fish. I have an angelfish with a white spot on the lip and where the fin connects to the body. I have a rainbow with a white spot at the fin base and two along the body. Now I have a glow tetra with a red streak on the side...

Thank you so much. This has been so helpful with my first experience with a fish health issue in the tank.

Ph is 7.4. I am on a well, and the natural ph is over 8, so I lower it before using in the tank. Gh was 10 and KH was 4. I have very hard well water with particularly high iron, and I bypass my water softener, then flush the pipes before using the water for the tank. Hard to tell for sure, but...

Thanks. I’ll definitely keep the paracleanse for if I really need it. The spots seems a bit smaller on the angel today. I’ve had a few fish suddenly die the last couple weeks, so maybe they were affected too but didn’t hang out for me to see them. The last was a kuhli loach, and I don’t see them...

Got the metronidazole and started treating the tank. I’m not seeing white poop at this point. This particular fish was not as enthusiastic for feeding time as usual yesterday. I got the paracleanse just to have on hand in case I need it.

I will start with that when the fish store opens this morning.

I took a bunch. Hopefully I got a good view.

The dogs are mud puddle.

I have a freshwater community tank, 5 guinea pigs, 2 chinchillas, and 2 dogs. I have the menagerie I always wanted. I’ve had the tank for a couple years, but I still very much consider myself a beginner. Really glad to have found a group of experts.

My angel fish has developed these white spots. It’s a 65 gallon community tank. Ammonia, 0; nitrite, 0; nitrate, 8, temp 77F. Professor Google seems to think ich or hole-in-the-head or something like that. Are those the same thing? The fish store opens at 10am tomorrow. What do I need to get to...
