Aquarium Advice Apprentice
My goldfish, Goldie, is now 14 years old. Her tank mate, an Otto named Nemo, died last year at the age of 13. I've had to treat a few things over time: constipation and fins that looked a little unhealthy. Most issues were because of inexperience and a fear to disturb them and their environment. However, now am a fanatic about clean gravel and water, and also change up the greenery and ornaments from time to time so she/he doesn't get bored!
At Christmas time I noticed a white lump on Goldie's tail. A week of Melafix/Pimafix cured it completely. Now, there is a similar white growth or two on one side of body, on head and along top of gill. A week of meds didn't do anything.
Any ideas what I am dealing with? Thank you. (Tank parameters checked today and are great. She's swimming and eating as usual.)
