I have one 4-inch half-fancy/half-comet goldfish in a 10-gallon aquarium.*** Yesterday, I moved him from my parent's house back to my dorm (same filter, gravel, etc.). This morning when I was feeding him, I noticed that his pelvic and tail fins were a little frayed and that there were two white things on one of his pelvic fins. The "things" are uneven in size and seem to stick out a bit. They do not appear to be anywhere else on my fish, who is acting and eating normally. Should I treat this as Ich or a bacteria/fungus? Is there any way to treat "both"?
***I know that this size is too small for him, but it the biggest I can have at my dorm. I was originally told by the petstore employee that a goldfish would be fine in a 2-gallon aquarium, but thankfully I did some research after a week and got him a 10-gallon.
