I need some help identifying a fungus-like scaling on a blackmoor goldfish, all levels are fine.This is the picture after 1 day. :huh:
Need info
- Thread starter moorfish
- Start date
maybe cotton fungus? its kind of hard to tell from the pic. Do a google search for pictures of fish diseases, that might help you narrow down what it is. In the meantime, do some water changes, clean water will help any fungus like infection
thanks i tried to put a bigger image on but im having a few problems trying to get it on the page.
Looks like a bacterial infection to me. Increase water changes and check your water perameters. Add 2 tbsp / 10g to the tank and get a good antibiotic medication, I like Maracyn 2 personally.
I would suspect poor water quality is the main contributing factor, but would you please give your water perameters? Ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, temperature are probably the most important. Would also give tank size and other inhabitants?
