I have three clown loaches in a 65 gal. At first I thought one of them had ICK, and gave one treatment of ICK Guard II yesterday.
But tonight when I was getting ready to add a second treatment
it's not ICK. It looks like some kind of fungus. It's white and is
"spotty" looking { that's why I thought it was ICK} It is located on his right side behind his gill. It's a patch about 1/4 inch long. And is the only place he has it. The other loaches and fish are all "clean". Not sure which meds to treat him with. This is what I have for fungus treatment: Fungus Clear {tank buddies}, Fungus Eliminator and MarOxy.
Weekly 30% water changes, Amm. 0, NitrItes 0 and NitrAtes 15
Tank has been cycled for 4-5 months. Occupants: three Clown loaches, pair of B. Rainbows, two Angels, pair of Pearl Gourami's,
one Gold Nugget Pleco, two yoyo loaches and two small Bala
Sharks.
