I have an established 38 gallon tank running an Aquaclear 70 w/a 1 gallon refugium. I use Prime and feed a rotation of Omega One color tropical flakes, sinking pellets, frozen food (bloodworms, spirulina brine shrimp) and live food (microworm and white worm - all self-raised). It gets weekly...

After looking into callamanus and its symptoms, it seems like it might be a possibility :( All my fish are still eating so perhaps I've caught it early. I will be ordering levamisole and hopefully that'll take care of it.

Here are some pictures of the guppy

Well, it's me again. I recently lost a female guppy in my 30 gal to a strange fuzzy, white growth on her belly - still of an undetermined cause. Now, I noticed a nasty wound on the belly of my remaining female guppy. As I watched, there was a red, thin string coming from it, which soon went...

Well, the fish in question didn't make it through the night. I'll be highly vigilant of the others but for now is there anything else I should do? Medicate the whole tank? Wait and see what happens?

I'll try googling the meds effect on shrimp and snails. Are there any other symptoms that would lead me to columnaris or a bacterial infection?

Also, my water is at 78F, would bringing that down help? Say to 75F?

It doesn't seem like a cauliflower. It's like a fuzzy lump but only in that location. And its fully white throughout, even to the edges. The fish doesn't seem to be struggling to breathe and swims fine. There are no other lacerations or growths anywhere else along the fish. The only other sign...

Here are better quality images - please let me know if a video would be more useful. Should I move the fish?

So you think it does look like columnaris? Or, could it just be a fungal growth?

I just noticed this today as I was gone all day yesterday. One of my female guppies has what appears to be a white fuzzy "bump/growth" on her stomach region (I have attached pictures). The tank is: 40 gallons, heavily planted w/weekly 30% water changes Nitrites, nitrates and ammonia are all...

Hello all, I have a 38 g, mature, heavily planted tank currently stocked with 1 dwarf gourami, 9 glow light tetras, 1 guppy, 1 platy, otos and julii Cory catfish (and cherry, Amano and ghost shrimp and snails). It receives weekly water changes of ~30% w/nitrate, nitrite and ammonia all at 0...
