Still dealing with some disease.

Alright gonna start doing daily water changes, and every other day frozen foods.

My only reason for not thinking its Columnaris is a lot of the pictures online for it just show cottony growth. The symptoms in my tank are more of a white patch that eats away at the fish.

What about lowering tank temperature? i have seen this suggested on a few search results. Adding salt? Adding an air stone?

While I tried a antibiotic food from tetra is there another one I should perhaps try that is commonly recommended?

While its only affecting the Lemon Tetras at the moment my biggest fear is to see any on the angel.

I am going to try Terramycin and Trypaflavin any suggestions on where to buy it and in what form? i checked drfostersmith but they did not seem to have any.

check out Mardel products and see their chart for desease

Columnaris does spread more rapidly at higher temps. Lowering the temp might be a good idea.

Lower water temp slowly and no more than 4 degrees - add salt no more than 1 tbsp per 10 gal/less if you have cories. Increase air flow- bubble wands or stones work great. I'm going through a minor case now and am trying different remedies. So far the med that works best is the Mardel combo of Maracyn + Maracyn 2 - quick and effective.
