Would appreciate any help in diagnosing this. Apologies for the poor photos - best I could do!
I've had this royal gramma for about 3 weeks now. Just noticed this morning a single white spot on the base of its caudal fin. There also appears to be a very small grey patch surrounding it. There are some faint grey roughly circular patches on the head that don't photograph at all.
It's not clear from the pictures but the spot itself is not a dot but a small raised elongated growth maybe 0.5 mm long projecting from the fish's skin which makes me wonder if it's some sort of parasite?
Fish is behaving normally and none of the others appears to be affected (so far at least)
Water parameters Ammonia 0, Nitrite 0, Nitrate 0, Ph 8.2, Phosphate 0.8
Any help on diagnosis and treatment and preventing a recurrance will be gratefully received!
Thanks
