Hello,
I posted this same question to a different forum but there was no response so far (more than 12 hours). I know that crossposting is not good, but since time might be of essence, I'm submitting my question here too. Sorry.
Anyway, back to the problem... Can you help me identifying the cause and proper treatment for this:

Two whitish spots on the tail fin, if looked from one side (the side shown on the pictures) under certain lighting it _seems_ that the spot has bumpy appearance, as if there is something that crawled under the skin (hard to say for sure because it changes with the light; might as well be concave instead of convex). Viewed from the other side, the spot is flat and seen just as a shadow through the fin.
The fish seems to act slightly more nervous than usual, but it is hard to tell, becausehe has always been the nervous and panicky one. I haven't noticed excessive scratching, or anything else too obvious.
Any clue what this might be, and what course of treatment should we take?
Thanks,
- Alex
