lluke Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 I need help identifying these white patchy on one of my newly purchased fish. I have him in a sick tank box inside the big tank and have been treating the whole tank with ichX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nabokovfan87 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Doesn't look like ich. Potentially fin rot issues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeD Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 (edited) Beautiful fish. Not my wheelhouse at all, but I think there will be some naturally white scales on these. I don't see any obvious ich, pictures don't always do the job. If the white looks milky, that could be a sign of a bacterial or fungal infection. The famed Aquarium CoOp quarantine trio meds wouldn't be a horrible idea here. Edited August 6, 2022 by BrettD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 (edited) It looks like fin and scale damage it's possible that he been beaten up by the dominant male I would add aquarium salt 1 table for 3 gallons and monitor for now Edited August 7, 2022 by Colu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
