i noticed that one of my two clown loaches lost colors and is covered with whitish mucas. Maybe it is not mucas but some sort of severe discoloration. He was still eating and was quite active but you could tell it is not the same active loach.
The other loach is fine, color lines are sharp, no visible problems, but this one, the color lines are fuzzy and the whole fish is whitish, fins included also more on the body than fins. It all hapened within one day.
I checked water parameters and except Nitrates 10ppm everything is as per my signature.
The only thing I can think of is that I added plant fertilizer and this might be a burnt skin issue. What would that look like?
It is not gold or rusty as velvet suppose to be also I have never seen velvet.
Any ideas? It is progressing fast, looks like I will remedy today or not at all.
thanks in advance for help
