I noticed my guppy had a white streak on its tail about 3 days ago and now it’s whole tail is white and peeling scales? Happened very suddenly and can’t find anything that looks like this elsewhere. No other fish in my tank has this, any help would be appreciated, thanks.

@QuincyL - I just saw the message that you sent to us on Instagram. I have never seen anything like that before. If you upload that same video here, maybe someone else can help identify.

It's Flavobacterium causeing necrosis of the skin that's what the white patch is I would treat with kanaplex and a nitrofurazone based treatment such as aquatics foods premium flake containing nitrofurazone or jungal fungas clear fizz tabs containing nitrofurazone as furan2 has been discontinued following this treatment schedule just replace furan2 with  nitrofurazone flakes or jungal fungas clear fizz tabs here's a loach suffering from the same disease @QuincyL843079861_Screenshot_20210721-0214205.png.efe6497c36d353e9587ac5306602a6aa.png
