Neon Tetra Is Real Sick Ntd? (week 2)

I've had this neon tetra for maybe a couple years now and at the beginning of last week I noticed his body was a milkier tone than usual and I could also see some minimal fin rot on his middle bottom fin all the other fish in the tank were fine after close inspection. His eyes were also bulging a bit and his body looked bloated. I immediately quarantined him and he's been living there ever since It seems a lot like NTD. I've been treating him with mostly Artemiss and I gave him a dose of fish-mox a couple days ago. However, after about 3 days, I started to notice his skin was bubbly and he now has 2 white spots. (maybe a sign of ich?). Ive attached some pictures and a video for y'all to look at. Any advice would be helpful! thanks!

Have you introduced any new fish recently? If you haven't then it can't be NTD, as it is a parasite and isn't aerobic, meaning it can't travel through air into your tank, and has to be introduced by an infected fish entering the aquarium.

As for your white spots, that's a secondary fungal infection. I'd recommend treating it with an off-the-store shelf anti-fungal.

I have introduced no new fish and no other fish have shown symptoms. He's still alive and doing alright but still a bit milky and I need to sort out the white spots.

In that case there's no way it can be NTD unless... When you got your fish, had they belonged to another person before you owned them? If you did, then it's possible there was an NTD outbreak in that tank, and they survived it, but they still remained carriers of it, and they have passed it on to an 'unvaccinated' fish.

As I said, the fungus should be taken care of with a general anti-fungal treatment.

NTD is as you said an (external) parasite. Fish can't survive / carry this parasite and then infect other fish.

In my opinion no symptoms of NTD though. I'd euthanise the fish cause it it too far gone to save it
