Hello everyone. One of my girlfriend's otos is sick. It seems to swim vertically at all time. He swims with one fin, the other fin looks okay with no visible injury. The most visible thing is that he has a white spot on his head. I dont think it is ich because it is way bigger than a grain of salt. He seems to always be laying on the gravel, sometimes even on its side. Every time we think he is dead he moves around. The oto has been like this for two days. They are fed zucchini, spinach romaine lettuce and algae wafers. The tetras always stick to themselves, we have never seen them chase, nip the otos since she has had them, 2 months.
