So today I was on my way to buy more fish for my tank (glowlight and neon tetras) and before I went, I looked at my tank and saw my guppy has either ick or a small fungus. I say fungus because it looks like salt grains but a little bigger and on the fuzzier side. It is peppered all over the fish. So this gave me a heart attack because I had ick 5 months ago but no problems since. I have not added any new fish at all, only plants. But I wash my plants off really good before I put them in the tank. I did not see any on any other fish, so I set up my quarantine tank and I will buy Seachem's Paraguard tomorrow. I just hope the rest of the tank is not infected. I did closely look at all of the other fish and I did not see anything on them at all, and no other fish are flashing.

I am confident that the Paraguard with get rid of the ich/fungus but it is just heartbreaking to see. This morning, nothing at all on the guppy, and then BAM. I apologize for this rant, but I just wanted to share my story for the day. haha
