tankie Fish Addict Posts: 857 Kudos: 848 Votes: 230 Registered: 15-Mar-2005	well...it could be white spot alrite...others r not infected yet coz their immune system still resisting it..but not for long...u should treat the tank coz the problem is already in there...go get an ich treatment that has malachite green and formaldehyde. malachite green can be harmful for scaleless fish if its strong. there r lots of treatment available for u...check ur lfs and ask them..but the final discision is urs. gud luck

One thing to be very careful of is matching the water you replace in the tank to that already in the tank. I learned the hard way. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is water at the bottom of the ocean
