We recently got a small flowerhorn and for some reason, he suddenly got sick. When we had got him, we did not see that he had some type of body fungus until we got home. It wasn’t a problem so we acclimated him to his cycled 55 gallon tank ( we plan on upgrading as he got bigger, right now he’s maybe 3 inches long), and put in some paraguard. It cleared up in three days and he was doing great, we did do another dosage the next day just to be sure it was all gone. After having him for a week, he was doing a lot better and getting comfortable. Yesterday, before we left home he was doing great and he was acting normal. When we got him late that night, he has these horrible spots on his head and his sides looked irritated from rubbing on his substrate. I’m almost positive this is ich, I raised the temperature and added in some paraguard (we have treated ich with this before) and I’m slowly going to raise the temperature a little bit more, is there anything else I can do to help him?
