tzahroxi Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 i saw this on my swordtail. i cant tell what it is. it looks like a white patch that is mostly smooth. some of the scale appear to be white but it is really hard to tell cause she wont let me see it. she currently has ich and im in the process of treating the tank with ich-x.

Colu Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 It looks like it got a mild case if fin rot and pinkish colour to the scales on his side it doesn't look like a fungal infection or Columnaris I would Qarantine and treat with aquarium salt 1 table spoon for 2 gallons if it gets worse than I would treat with kanaplex if it gets a white lip or white patches on its back then I would treat with kanaplex and jungal fungas clear fizz tabs containing nitrofurazone together following this treatment schedule replacing furan2 for jungal fungas clear fizz tabs as furan2 has been discontinued Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colu Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 I wouldn't use ick x while using these meds as ick requires daily water changes and the antibiotic don't I usually use ick x with kanaplex when Kanaplex is add to food also jungle fungus clear fizz tabs treats dermal fungus so there's no need to dose ick x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
