What is this?
I posted in the disease forum, but haven't gotten any responses yet. I'm hoping someone can ID this lesion on an ocellaris to help with a treatment direction. He's been through TTM with prazipro, malachite green x 1 wk, and now chloroquine x 5 days at 60mg/Gallon in a 10G QT. Velvet and ich were in the cause for treatment, but he never showed any signs of disease until 24 hours ago.
It's basically a gray spot on the head, where the white band crosses. Has anyone seen anything like this before? No other visible signs on the fish, but his behavior has gotten much more lethargic and feeding response went from 10/10 to 1/10. Any input would be greatly appreciated. |

I have no advise for you. But i have seen something like this before. It was on the female of a pair of picasso clowns. they were in a small partition at an LSF. they were full grown. I purchased them. I got them home and the female could not really swim well. She was always head down and to the side. I thought she looked like she had had a stroke. Then I noticed a spot on her head that was gray. It was in the white area. I don't know if it was related to the odd swimming behavior, but I returned the pair. Can't help you in regard to your fish, but you asked if anyone had seen this before.

Cloudy eyes… I seem to recall that as a symptom of flukes, in which case prazipro would be appropriate. In any case, it is likely to do no harm. Best of luck.
