|
|
Today I noticed that each of my 3 Zebra Danio's have a white bump on their tail fin. I looked up fish diseases, but none of them seem to describe what I see. Ich is described as multiple small white spots the size of a grain of salt. They each only have one bump that is a bit larger than a grain of salt.
Does anyone know what this is? Is it something I should be worried about? |

I'm unable to get a picture of them. They don't stay still long enough!!!
Also, it doesn't match any of the fungus descriptions either. It doesn't look "cottony" as they describe. |

| It looks similar to that, but they aren't as round and maybe a tiny bit larger. Maybe I should treat them for Ich just to be on the safe side? |

Yeah, it wouldn't hurt to go ahead and treat.
