I bought 3 clown loaches few weeks ago from Pets at home and within a week of introducing them all three died, so did my big bala shark and 1 of my tetras from white spot.

Got mega angry at pets at home but thats another story.

Anyway since then i think ive managed to rid the white spot from my tank with regular use of treatment and water changes.

Now in the last week ive noticed my Plectomus seems to have got some lighter brown patches on its body.

Not sure ifs its another diesese or if plecs as they grow just change colour?

Appreciate anyones help as i really dont want lose more fish as i only have a few left. :(

Thanks Rob
 
I would go to the catfish part of the forum just to make sure it not the plec natural colouring.
Brown paches can be columnaris to velvet.
Any signs of flicking and rubbing against objects.
Is there an over production of slime on the fish.
 
Is it like mottled with lighter and darker patches ? If so I wouldnt worry, they do that.

Also just to be sure, what type of Plec is it ?

Mine was a common black plec, I got him ages ago at about 2 inches long, hes now about 6" long and does that regularly.

Do you give him algae wafers to eat in the evening ??
