Hey everyone I need some help identifying the problem effecting my german blue ram. He has white bumps (not ich) on his head. These bumps have slowly multiplied and have begun to grow. The main one in the center of his head seems to have opened. When he was in the 30 gallon he was hiding in the back (he was housed with rummynose tetra and khuli loaches). In the quarantine tank he acts normal but the spots are getting worse. I have treated with melafix and quick cure. I did a large water change, 40%, yesterday and today he seems worse. I have pictures from three days ago and today.
I have had him for about 9 months. Bought him from a great LFS, not a chain. I have moved him from his 30 gallon planted home to the 20 gallon planted quarantine tank. I do weekly 20-30% water changes on all my tanks. Both tanks read 0 nitrite 0 ammonia and about 5-10 nitrate. PH is 7.0. The temperature stays about 82f.
The last picture is from three days ago before the spots seem to break skin.
Please help!
