Hannah Q Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Hello everyone! I have a 7 month old Oranda and I’m nervous she might have ich. I sometimes notice what appears to be little white specks only on her left side but I’m not sure if I’m just over thinking it. I recently upgraded her into a larger tank and don’t know if that may have caused it. I would appreciate any help incase I need to treat her ! Thank you ! The parameters are : Temp - 73 degrees Fahrenheit nitrite & ammonia - 0 ppm Ph- 7.5-8 nitate - 0 ppm https://ibb.co/tLLb4pf https://ibb.co/bP9JQQj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenFins Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 I don't see any ich on the fish. Usually the ich will attack the fins the most, and only some white dots will be on the sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so those are breeding stars, your goldfish is a male who is looking to breed hehe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
