bigbadbrent Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 Have had this Gourami for around 6 months, and he had what i assumed was an outbreak of Ich. I thought i had it managed as it disappeared, but then had to leave the tank at my parents as i was out of the country. When i got back, this small dot was on his bottom fin (hopefully you can see in the photos). I was back on the 9th. I've had the tank temperature at around 86-87 degrees for 10ish days, and havent seen a thing. I also had the tank at a pretty high temperature at my parents just in case, but it didnt help. Is this Ich, or just a spot? I've been dosing with Ich Guard as well, and again no progress. Have been doing 25% water changes every couple of days, removed all decorations & gravel except the treasure chest to give him somewhere to hide.

bigbadbrent Posted January 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 (edited) That's what I figured, I had 2 danios in there the whole time and neither got a speck, if it's not ich I'd like to give this guy his decorations back and cool the tank a bit. though he's done ok for it for now...

nautilus Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 I would keep an eye on it and if it spreads then worry about it. otherwise if by now nothing has happened and it hasn't spread, it should be alright. Just my 2 cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BettaFishMommy Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 could just be a nodule of sorts from a fin tear. when i had angels they would get spots like that on occasion, and my lonfin rosy barbs get them once in a while too. keep an eye on it, and watch the other fish too for behaviour changes, appetite changes, anything out of the ordinary. but like nautilus said, if it doesn't spread i wouldn't worry too much.
