Do you know if there’s anyway to treat it? Because I don’t even know how it’s happened.

Have you done a recent water change?
See the link I posted above.

Ive just had a read of it. And yeah I did do a water change a couple of days ago by tank doesn’t appear to be cloudy from the bubbles and all my other fish seem fine.

Do you match the tap temp to the tank temp as closely as possible during the WC's?

Can you get a closer pic of the fish?

Yeah I always use my thermometer to make sure the water is a similar temperature and I will try and get another picture in a second.

Hmmm, may not be GBD after all....is this a painted fish?

 

[Harryg00]

No it’s just a normal neon tetra

No it’s just a normal neon tetra

Or used to be....something is seriously wrong here...

Perhaps neon tetra disease, but I've never seen cysts that look like the ones your fish has

@Colin_T, any ideas?

It’s not Neon Tetra Disease but I must say I have never seen or heard of GBD. I’m sorry you’re going through this but very interesting to follow.

Do you fill your tank with a Python or hose?

I killed 4 of my otherwise healthy fish due to GBD, by filling the tank during a WC with water that was much warmer than the tank temp...it was an awful thing to witness...

No, I use a bucket and gently pour it in I have no idea why this is happening all my other seem perfectly healthy ive even just taken out my fine filtration media in case that’s trapping bubbles and making these micro bubbles or something but I think if it gets worse I may have to put the fish down.
