marinekat Fingerling Posts: 23 Kudos: 15 Votes: 0 Registered: 13-Nov-2003	Hi guys, can anyone help with an unknown disease rampaging my tank!! Recently my 2 cleaner shrimp have died, to which i have no explanation but they were basically keeping all my fish free from disease. Now that they are gone i have had two fish recently die. The only sympton i can see is big white spots bout 2mm in diameter. Definitlely not itch. Can anyone help with a diagnosis and possible remedy.
