Hi everyone,
I have a CPD that is having a strange pimple on his side. I have attached a picture, not the best quality, unfortunately. Those little buggers are swimming too fast for my camera. It is definitely sticking out from his side (and not a hole) and after today's water change it looks like something is coming off its top, maybe the fish's scales.
A few weeks ago, a female CPD died with something that looked similar, but it was growing at the tailfin base.
He lives with 5 other CPDs, 1 honey gourami and a lot of ghost shrimp. The tank also has a lot of living plants. I do a 25% water change every second day or 50% once a week.
Maybe you have an idea what this could be. He is eating and all the others look fine, but it seems to be contagious assuming the recently passed fish had the same thing.
Tank size: 40l
pH: 6.4
ammonia: 0
nitrite: 0 ppm
nitrate: 5 ppm
kh: 6
gh: 7
tank temp: 24°C
