So I’m in the process of converting an old in-ground pool into a natural swimming pond. I need help figuring out what to use as a barrier to keep the floating plants in one area of the pool. I don’t want to use any kind of netting because I don’t want the fish or any kids getting caught up in it...

So I let my 10-year-old use our old 10g because she's been wanting a betta. Very proud mama moment when I saw her finished product. I gave her a bunch of supplies to work with and even gave her the option of getting her own decorations if she wanted, but she did awesome with what we had. Picked...

Kingfish, not ich, but thanks for trying. King Fisher, I agree that its most likely lymphocystis, but I have no way of knowing for sure. Already tried checking out a scraping under a microscope, but couldn't confirm. I moved the other angel into the 45g with her because he was killing my...

Moved her to a 45g bow front with the male angel. We'll see if its contagious...

I was doing 50% for awhile, but after removing all meds & such, I cut back to 20% because even with that, the water is still pristine. It's just the one baby angel in a 10g. My issue is what to do with her when she gets bigger. Might be getting the 35g out of storage and doing a reseal on it so...

The fish is still active and normal other than the strange spots. A few seem to have faded away for the most part, but there are still at least 6 spots that have not changed. I stopped treating for everything quite awhile ago. Just doing weekly 20% wc's....

Still no changes...so nothing to update.

Nothing new yet....Treated the quarantined fish with raised temp & salt for 6 weeks. This should have helped rid any fungal, bacterial, or ich issue up when accompanied by a small daily water change (which I did about 20-30% daily including vacuuming the bare bottom). While a few of the spots...

Haven't done a scraping yet. Fish is still acting normal & the spots haven't changed. Ordered some mal green. Gonna try that before I resort to a scraping.

I could confirm with a microscope, I just don't want to put the fish through the scraping process as it's doing perfectly well other than the spots.

Nothing has changed with this fish at all. Spots are still the same, fish still acting normal. Not sure what to do because these things are definitely not normal... [emoji30][emoji27]

While one spot has disappeared after a week of treatment, the remaining 15+ abssesses look unaffected. I don't think that qualifies as slowly going away. Does it? Should I continue adding the salt? How long should I try that befote moving onto a different treatment?

Don't think anyone is reading this, but just in case someone else ends up having to deal with this I'm still updating what I'm trying... So, after one week of raised temps with added salt of 1tbsp/5g, only one of the abssesses have disappeared. The rest look exactly the same. The angel is still...

Not seeing any change as of yet... [emoji30] The angel is still acting normal and the abscesses are still exactly the same. Any recommendations on a med to try? No clue what I'm dealing with [emoji24]

No change as of yet. Fish has been and still is acting normally. Haven't seen any flashing.
