Hi, have a 55 gal tank with 3 angel, 6 cichlids and an 8 month old pleco( he's about 8" long). Water parameters have been fine but suddenly the pleco had a small piece of skin, size of a pinhead, missing from the rim of his face, nose area, which stayed white. About a week later on the other side of the rim of his face (just under his feeler), he start with a white headed pimpled blister, this increased to 2 then 3 white pimples encased in this clear blister. He's eating good, but constantly swimming, almost too actively. Now it looks like the blister is turning from opaque to redish still housing the 3 white pimples, it has gotten a bit larger in size. Petshop can't come up with anything. Any ideas what this might even sound like? I thought it might be the beginning of an ulcer. Thanks for any help
