i was doing a pwc and the upside down cat came out from hiding. i noticed that around his head was red, like a patch of red, and he had a red streak, or line, running down through his body and fading as it reaches his tail.
i don't recall him having this coloration before, but maybe, i don't see him much, he usually hides in the plants or cave.
i've read that ich can also manifest in this way. could he have the ich? or does he have another sickness?
if so, i also have a day old batch of fry. how would treatment affect them? if i increase the temp for ich, would they be alright? the fry takes priority over the cat fish. maybe i can just isolate the catfish, but i don't have another tank.
TIA
