TimCNX Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Hi there, Hope everyones having a great day. I hope you can help me out. One of 4 hillstream loaches in my 45 gallon has "white stuff" at one eye. I saw it just now, all the other fish in the community tank are fine. It looks like a fungus to me on first sight, but I am literally just guessing. Didn't find anything with a quick online research. Anyone else with an idea what it could be - and what I could do? Thanks a lot in advance! Ammonia at 0, N03 ~ 15, N02 at 0, GH between 6-8, KH at 3, PH ~6.5.

Fish Folk Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 It may be fungus. If it’s white and a bit “fuzzy” looking, it is. If you have a Quarantine tank set up, that’s preferable for treating. If not... you might end up dosing the tank. I highly recommend a quarantine; but recently, I had to dose an entire tank with API Fungus Cure. It’s got Malachite Green in. Stains the water like engine coolant! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimCNX Posted May 20, 2021 Author Share Posted May 20, 2021 Thanks a lot! I don't have a quarantine tank, so I will have to go with monitoring and treat If I see it gets more, I guess. Thanks for the help! I will try to set up a quarantine tank for the future soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
