So I think my fish have a problem. These are my first fish so please work with me.
I have 5 gold tetra in a cycled 55. My readings are in range but my P.H. is a bit high, around 7.6.
My concern started when one of the fish was straight on face ramming one side of the tank.This behavior has since stopped following a water change.
However, I did notice all of the fish seem to have little pieces of reflective metal around the area where the head meets the body and it's gold in color. It is only visible when the light hits the fish just right.
Looking up what I could the only thing I saw with gold spots mentioned was velvet, but that sounded more like it would be gold colored spots, not a reflective metallic coloring.
Anyway started treating with a double does of ich attack and haven't seen any change after.5 days. So I don't know what to think. I would love to supply a picture but can't figure out to get one that would show the issue.
