Hello all
i've never dealt with any kind of treatment in my short time in ths hobby. i curently do not have a QT/HT but am in the process of getting it all together.
i've been researching and was hoping you guys/girls could let me know if i'm on the right path.
for the last couple of weeks i've that "Homer" has a white patch on his side that he never had before. i believe this could be a bactieral infection, a gram positive infection since he has had it a few weeks. He has been hiding much more, but will eat a small amount. i havn't notice his weight dropping yet and his mate the cleaner shrimp still goes to town on him.
i've read that he could fight this himself whilst he's still eating, but what i dont want is for him to get too weak and then its too late.
any advise on what course of action to take?
