The last week i was on holiday and i put in papers the every day dosis, so that my flatmate can feed my fish. The last time that i cleaned the filter was 2 months ago more or less and the last time i cleaned the aquarium 3 weeks ago. All the fish are very active and are moving like normally but 2 celestial pearl danios have scars/strange things on them. I tried to make fotos and I hope that they can help. Below the info of my tank.
So the CPD1 is one of the initial that i bought but the CPD2 I do not know any more if it is one of the initial or one of the babies. I tried to make fotos of them and put them together. Later i will try to make some more.

b. Nitrite? No
c. Nitrate? 0
d. pH, KH and GH? 7,2 - 6 ->7
e. Test kit? Dehner Wassertest

I also have shrimps ghost and red one, some shells and a clea helena (my shells were becoming really a lot)
