I was planning on starting treatment for skin and body flukes tomorrow afternoon for my tanks. I have two tanks where either gills are pushed out with breathing or rlse scratching and jumping so I figured prazipro for sure would take care of that. Because I didn't know they were ill, I used the same python hose for everyone. 
I have not seen that behavior in any of my other tanks. Should I treat all the tanks anyway? It has been over two weeks since the original 2 tanks with the scratching and jumping fish first started having symptoms.
After treatment, One of my Black Pinoys from a 75g that had been treated with paracleanse has something on it that I don't know what it is. He doesn't seem to be bothered by it... but there is more of it now. The larger areas when I zoomed looked like maybe they were made up of a cluster of smaller things, perhaps. Is this also skin flukes or something else? No scratching or jumping. No shyness, no appetite or behavior changes. Other than visual, I don't see any symptoms. Him and his mate came out of one of my 75s. No fish in that tank have the jumping and scratching symptoms or the things on their body as far as I can tell. I had separated him and his mate out of there.
I have a 75, and two 35g with no symptoms of any of this....
Can anyone tell me what this is?
If it is something different... do I treat the tank he came from with something other than prazipro? No one in that tank is scratching or jumping or not eating or shy, either.
None of them were exposed to new fish. Only new plants and possibly pest snails.
