So one of my fish has what I thought could be ich. It isn't. (The dots are too big, and it wasn't affected at all with high salt/temp.)
Also I have tried coppersafe. So far I have seen no improvement. He doesn't seem to be hurting or anything. But I want to figure this out. I was told it could be something like Oodinium. I don't have and good photos at the moment, but well there are never a hug amount of white dots, but the go on scales or fins. I haven't seen it spread at all to the other fish. It has been easily over a month. (I treated first for at least 10 days on salt and temps about 86 degrees, then tried copper safe for about 3 weeks now.)
I will try to post more pictures, but I was thinking about doing a good water change to try to get out the coppersafe and then maybe Methylene Blue. It really can't be a bacteria if it is going so slow right?
Note water parameters all read good. This stuff will tend to go in stages from smaller dot to larger to disappear and of course other dots appear.
Though now after reading some more I haven't been checking the levels for the copper safe. (I have some stuff to check levels, just don't know if it works right with coppersafe.) And now I see Methylene Blue will kill the bacteria I don't want killed.
I think I might end up buying some Malachite Green and try to find some formalin.
