MAN!! This is not a good week for me... so I have these black spots that broke out on the Clown Loaches. They look like freckles almost...I saw that someone else had this problem and didn't know what it was(thanks for the photos), so I'm hoping that you can help me out. Here are some pictures of his loaches(wife has the camera) mine do have the same spots, though not as bad yet... please help!!

Were those photos from chefkeith's loaches?

You might be interested in reading further info he posted re theories, etc. here. It's several pages, read all the way through, from what I remember I think there were some conclusions at the end:

Yes they are!! Thanks for the that link!!
This is exactly what I have. But the really odd thing is that I too was just seeing those white planaria on my glass. Also I was thinking that my nitrates and fert schedule got thrown out of wack because my ballast on 1/2 my lights went out and that might have something to do with it. Still very curoius!!!

Chefkeith you rock!!!!
