Hole In The Head

[pinkdolphin_113]

i think my angelfish have "hole in the head" but seem to be thriving. their colours are always shown and some even have light blue patches on their fins and gills.
i have 4 angels in a 30 gallon and i dont know what my stats are just yet.
does hole in the head stay with the fish? or do the holes go away?

thanks

Are the fish flicking and rubbing.

thanks. i read all of that and the holes in my fish's head aren't that big. they're tiny compared to those in the pictures.
maybe i'm mistaken and they dont have hole in the head.
is there any other diseases like hole in the head?

the fish aren't rubbing or flicking at all.
there is also a little aggression in the tank between two small angels but the less aggressive still seems to get enough food.

Can start off as a small pimple as well.

Hole in the head left untreated can cause big gapping holes.
Tolak on so he will advise he keep angels and know alot of this sort of illness.
