Fish Herder
My rubberlip pleco has white spots from his tail, up his back. They look almost like polka dots. He's really hard to get a good look at, but I noticed something much smaller today, so whatever it is, it's moving fast. I've had him for a couple months and he's always seemed very gold glittery like, which I've always been uneasy about, but a lot of fish are just iridescent, and I've never kept a rubberlip (or bullnose) before so I wasn't sure. His movements are very erratic, but they always have been. It seems like every couple months I get some type of fungus problem, and Im really sick of it!! Here is my tank info:
30 gallon vertical
Aquaclear 70 filter (fully cycled of course)
Ammonia= 0
ph= 7.6-7.8 (always)
temp: 76 F
I don't see any other signs in any of my fish, except I have noticed one of cories flashes sometimes. Nothing crazy but he's def. flashing.
Over a month ago, one of my tigers had a fungus-y thing that, with the help of TFF, thought was columnaris and I treated with pimafix. It cleared up and he is doing good. I really hate heavy meds and I have many little cories, and a pictus so I don't want to do anything too strong, but Im upgrading tanks soon and i REFUSE to start off with problems so I really need some help! Should I just throw some salt in??? help!!! I can't get a clear shot of my plec for a pic yet but I will keep trying!
