Yeah, it literally looks just like peeling skin from a sunburn. Its all concentrated around his head area with most on his forehead but none on his body or fins. There are the occasional chunks that are hanging off as well.

I posted several days ago saying there was some white stuff on my Oscar. I was told this was msot likely Ich and since then I have been treating the tank wth NoxIch (NaCl and Malachite Green). Now my fish has large white chunks hanging off his body. It looks exactly like a persons skin does...

Ok thanks for the confirmation. I'm going right away. Have to save my little buddy.

Yeah he has that but as I understood it, Whitespot doesn't make large white protrusions.

I woke up this morning and suddenly my Oscar has these white spots on him. It seems to fit the description of Ich except they aren't all just small spots, one under his eye is probably a centimeter long. He has the fine dusting of white spots like salt grains but some larger ones as well. Is...

I can't see anything wrong with him on the back half of his body. Although now that you mention it I did notice the middle of his left fin has a strange bump in the middle of it which I was meaning to come on here and ask about. Its the same colour as his fin(clear) but I can see blood vessels...

Right now he's tired himself out from being weird. But basically he does hard 180 degree turns like a dog chasing its tail. Its really weird, I hope theres nothing wrong with him and its just a strange new game he plays. MrBones...thats entirely possible. Maybe I've driven him to insanity.

50 gallon tank. No other fish in there.

Hi, I have a Tiger Oscar named Trudy, he's about 20 months old and has always done weird things(like Oscars do) but suddenly yesterday he started being really weird. He swims as hard as he can in circles then shoots off to another side of the tank and does something else then swims in circles...

That would make sense since the tank was recently moved. I moved at the end of Jan and ever since then the tank has been a tiny bit murky but it just finally got really bad. I'm still waiting to see if it clears up.

Nah, I never change all the filter media, always keep one of the old ones in there. Thats what I've been doing for the past year and a half. I hope you're right and its just the algae bloom. I'll wait and see what happens. Its strange though, the water is whitish and looks as if someone...

Hey everyone, the last couple weeks the water in my tank has been getting really cloudy. In the last couple days it has gotten so bad I can't even see the back of the tank. My filter is running the same as always and I've changed some of the filter media but its still really bad. Does anybody...
