It appears he has fungal, bacterial or has been getting picked on by the 14 junior Mbuna in the tank. I have a feeling somebody's been picking his bristles off 'cause he has none. It appears white as healing wounds. Is this what it could be or does he have some sort of infection?

Thanks for your expert advice!!

:confused:

Thanks for the posts

Yes, as suggested I moved the guy tonight. Upon closer observation of the tank I saw a fish here and there go over and pick at his face or his tail. I moved him to a much friendlier tank. I agree, the guy was being brutalized:mad:

I supose I should'a paid more attention to these school aged bullies:rolleyes:
