Hello everyone,
I got a new Betta a week and a half ago. He's been in a quarantine tank since day 1 and I've been doing daily partial water changes. I've been doing more research about what kind of symptoms to look for in case he has something. He is a white opal color and as you can imagine it can be hard to identify if he has columnaris or not, but I did pick up on whiter/brighter areas on his gills and head and small brown/red spots on his face. He did look like this when I got him so I'm not sure if this is just his coloring or he has columnaris, or perhaps he has something entirely different that someone can enlighten me on.
I've attached a few pictures. They aren't the greatest. It was pretty hard to get a good image of him, but I tried my best and I circled the areas in question. As you can hopefully see those areas appear to be whiter and brighter than the rest of his body.
Thank you in advance!
