Hi.
We have a sick clown loach. The other two loaches we have are fine. Other inhabitants are a couple silver dollars and some Bolivian Rams.
This white spot has been developing over a couple days on the loach's back. It *DEFINITELY* is not Ich. The picture doesn't show it because it is a bad camera, but the spot is much bigger than an Ich spot, and he doesn't have the salt effect over his body.
He is fin clamped and gasping.
The two smaller loaches live under a drift wood log, and burrowed out their hollow. At first, we thought it was a raw spot from rubbing against the log (both of them got this above their noses when we first got them, which is a pretty normal thing for loaches without a really soft substrate.)
I'm somewhat at a loss.
Ideas?
The white spot infront of his fin is about an eighth of an inch around or so, and more clearly defined than it was several days ago when it was a whiteish discoloration. His over all color is relatively pale at the moment.
