Hey Gang, I got stuck with my brothers gf's fish tank. and one of the smaller platies has grown a white lump near it's tail.
Tank size: 5 gal
tank temp: 78
Fish Symptoms : the fish has a white growth at it's tail area, it is swimming at the top (very slowly) and it's angled upward.
Volume and Frequency of water changes: Not really sure, I just added some, but before putting the water in, I did what was recommended by the regulator.
Chemical Additives or Media in your tank: we have pebbles? and a litle plastic rock cave and plastic plant.
Tank inhabitants: 2 platties and a crown betta
Digital photo (include if possible):
I know it's pretty hard to see from the pics I've posted, but I tried my best. The one from the top may be blurry, but you can clearly see how big the bump is! It's on the right side of the fish.
