I'm hoping it's just a small injury as well. I just did around a 30% water change so hopefully he will be ok
Is there a possibility it could be a fungus or other type of growth?
I'm very concerned that its something like columnaris or a type of fungus. Hes not eating, hanging near the top of the tank (not like him). What should I do?
Should I add some salt to my tank? I have Melafix as well. I can't really quarantine him to a hospital tank. I have extra tanks, but none are set up... :|
Well my fears were true. It is columnaris. I woke this morning to see his lips being huge, white, and covered in fuzz. I immediately removed him from the main tank and put him in another container with some air. I treated the water and added some salt and copper safe for secondary infections. However, I dont know what to do about the columnaris...
