Fish Fanatic
Over the past say 6-8 months, i spotted a red streak across the bass of my smokey angels back where his fin is.
i never really thought much of it, he is healthy, swims fine, isnt being bullied by any other fish etc and eats well but i just happened to type in fish disease diagnosis just to see if there were any useful sites and the first site i came across had as a first question "my fish has redness at the base of his fin" and they say its a form of bacterial septecemia (sp?)
Should i be worried, there is no sign of illness or any changes in his behaviour so i never thought much of it
its just looks like a little rash around the base of his fin but its never got larger or has spread
I occasionally put in aquarium salts and a lotion called Primafix when i see problems or once every few months just incase there is anything lurking, not a regular thing but its never changed
