stupid tangs....of course they're going to parasite my tank.
Brought my dejardini sailfin out of QT and into the DT. He seemed fine for a few days. I had to leave town for the most part of a week while my wife took care of the tank. She informed me that it looked like the sailfin had ich. I told her probably and it's probably due to transfer stress into the DT since he's one of the last fish to go in.
I get home and it looks to me like he's got black ich. I've never dealt with it or seen it before but is that what this is? Seems like the spots arent raised nor looks like pepper instead of the salt like white ich.
It might be stress but his color was shot and with what would possibly be black ich, I just did a formaline dip and back into the QT he goes!
Sorry for out of focus pictures. This was while I was pulling him out of the formalin dip so he's not very happy and was flipping all over the place in the net.
When he settles down in QT i'll get a better pic
