I really dont want the rest of my tank to get it! i have 3 columbian tetra and the 3rd one hasnt developed any symptoms off it but i will keep an eye on him. i have never seen any treatment for this avalible at any of my lfs. What do i do?

water quality is fine ive checked it all. None of the other fish seem affected. Ive just done a 20% water change as the normal weekly change thats when i notcied it. The fish with the black patches has had them for quite a While id say a month they just seem to be getting more and more. I dont have a clue what to do i just dont want to lose all my fish.

For the best answers, make a post in the emergency section,
But It sounds bacterial and my guess that this is down to either, new fish bringing in the disease or water quality issues
