Lds760 Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 Just noticed today (see pic). Water parameters before a 30% water change. pH 7.4 Ammonia just a trace, < .25 ppm Nitrite 0 Nitrate 15 KH 6 GH 12 TDS 463 Temp 76.4 Deg F This is a fairly new tank, 45 gal. It doesn’t look fuzzy or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 (edited) It difficult to tell is it raised or flat spot as well with ammonia as your pH is above 7 ammonia is more toxic a would do small daily water changes and add prime to detoxify any ammonia as this could be the root cause of what's affecting him the majority of problems affecting fish are usually caused by poor water quality getting your ammonia to zero should help with whatever affecting him Edited December 25, 2021 by Colu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lds760 Posted December 25, 2021 Author Share Posted December 25, 2021 Thx. Looks flat, as opposed to raised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 (edited) It could have scraped himself my bristlenose male sometimes does this i can't be sure that's the cause I think if you increase water changes and get your ammonia to zero I think that should resolve itself Edited December 28, 2021 by Colu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
