Is This Velvet Or White Spot On Butterfly Fish Maybe?

[Alex Brown]

how would i do this, keep him in water, in a net and hold the fish, or take it out of water?

just a simple pin/needle to pop it?

is there no chance it will go on its own, the fish is still eating and behaving normally. no signs of damaged skin either now

there are two air bubbles, on on the back of the eye, and one covering the iris. i've tested my hand with the fish on both sides, and i get no reaction to the side which is damaged, Im 90% sure its blind in that eye, or the air pocket has stopped the fishs view.

Do another freshwater Dip and this time do it for 4 minutes and if it has'nt settled down by juanuary the 5th you just get a buket with about 2" of water and pop them

Hi,

Thanks for all your help, but my fish died today

The white spot I reported actually cleared after two days, then over the weekend just gone it broke out again on the wimple fish. He was pretty covered when I saw him on his last fins last night.

Thanks again, Alex.
