Title: This Just Makes Me Sick
Post by: PaulineMi on December 22, 2013, 05:41:20 PM
Every once in awhile I entertain myself by taking close up photos of my fish's various features and color patterns.  I noticed this in yesterday's pix:

I have a hospital tank set up and will be trying to get this guy well.  I'm not sure if it's the same thing my white angel had earlier this year or if it's hex.  No white feces......   Ugh.   :(

 It's terrible when your fish get sick. I hope it gets better soon.

Looks like HITH Pauline.  You will need lots of good old clean water, high quality foods and treat with Metro.  I think you can fix this, don't worry too much and don't get sick over it.

Thank you.  It's weird how this just seems to have come out of nowhere.

Likely the pic has shown it earlier than your eye might have picked it up...this is good....it'll come around nicely with the early prognosis..

I agree Jon. The fish shows no signs of illness at all.  Of course it's not happy at all in the new tank.
