Can anyone I.D. this illness for me?
Got a dwarf gourami with what appear to be ulcers on each
gill cover, one larger than the other, and pinkish in color.
(like when you scrape a knee or something, only more ragged.)
And his upper lip, for lack of a better term, looks like that disease the elephant man had. (mis-shaped and maybe fungal)
It hasn't been this way for long, and only took 3-4 days to get real noticeable. (I was gone over the weekend, and it got real pronounced.)
Still eating good, but hanging out in a dark rock cave most of the time.
Checked the water, all looks fine. no ammonia, no nitrites, nitrates are almost 0, no major ph changes recently.
Any guesses?
All help appreciated
