Posted this in the cichlid forum, but didn't get a lot of responce, The sickness described below is pretty general so i posted here.
Just returned from vacation and have found my blood Parrot cichlid really sick.
He hasn't been himself for a while, not eating just hanging in the tank but looked ok. Once i returned i found he has these white bumps on his head kind of like little mushrooms. i have no med tank to put him in so he's with the gen population, all water params are OK and changed every two weeks 20 to 30 percent.
what do you think he has? Can he be saved? If so how? Will he get everyone in the tank infected as well?
THANKS!!! you people are the best!!
