Oscar Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 My Gourami is looking a bit down-only obvious sign is he has a white spot on each eye?Can someone please help?? Water tested all ok,I don't know what sort he is,he's sort of browny stripe with orange along the bottom edge and tail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oscar Posted November 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 Also noticed he is having trouble swiming around especially up to top of his tank?All other fish are fine-he's in a community tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slash Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 is it just one white spot or many small white spots? i had a problem like this, i just treated it with a whitespot(ich) cure after changing 20% water.

Oscar Posted November 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 Don't think its that as only one spot in the middle of each eye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oscar Posted November 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2005 Update-he is still hanging in but has small white marks around front-not too many and not spotty-also he is going to surface for air more than normal. From what I've read this doesn't appear to be whitespot but is there any harm intreating for it in case it is?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caper Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 Post the pic...it doesn't sound like Ich (whitespot)...whitespot looks like salt was shaken on the fish. You say, white marks...uh...like patches, are they fluffy looking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oscar Posted November 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 He died-he was a nice fish.I will try to upload photo-no close up as wife had flushed him before I had a chance.The white spots were more like leasons not fluffy or raised.Youi can just see them by his head. http://images.snapfish.com/345449992323 ... 6433ot1lsi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
