Dustin Perez Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 So I recently noticed my Hawaiian platy had some whitish coloring to it's lips and they looked a little swollen. It's eating and acting fine. But a previous fish I bought that had the same thing died. Not sure what it is so I'm looking for an answer to what the disease is and how to treat. I was unable to get a clear picture sorry. My water paramiters are... Ph 7.6 Kh 5° Gh 9° Nitrate 20-30ppm Temperature 77 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 (edited) Whats your nitrites and ammonia levels and does the white lip have a fuzzy appearance Edited October 11, 2021 by Colu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dustin Perez Posted October 11, 2021 Author Share Posted October 11, 2021 Nitrites and ammonia stay at 0ppm and no fuzziness just look bigger than normal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 (edited) White lip can be a sign of Columnaris I would do a course of kanaplex in food if you notice it on other fish I would treat with kanaplex and furan2 together following this treatment plan Edited October 11, 2021 by Colu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
