Yellow Marking On My Goldfish

[berbie38]

Hi all
I have some yellow tanning on one of my white and red golfish, sorry dont know the species. I googled it and came up with the answer that the fish has the disease velvet, a parasite. It said to treat with ridich or quick cure, is this correct? I have four fish in total in the tank.
any help much appreciated
best regards
john

would be helpful if you could upload a pic. if it says it's velvet. it probably is. 2 options. quarantine him in a seperate tank or 2 remove carbon and zeolite media and treat the whole tank.

A nice picture in the tropical emergencies would be a good idea. Few of us here are as good at disease diagnosis as the people who hang out there.
