its called ick or ich ......

get some medicine and follow the directions... he doesnt look to happy or healthy but good luck... raising the temperature to like 80 or 82 will slow down the lifespan of the ick...

Actually,raising the temp slighty to 80-82 will speed up the life cycle of the ick. It can only be treated in it's free swimming stage. Raising the temp makes the ick develop faster so it can be quickly treated in this stage. Good luck.
