So, I'm going to have to forget about that little guy with SBD in the store for now. I think Fiyero may be sick.
He is in a 10 gallon tank that I bought second hand. I cleaned it up really well, but I'm scared that I might have missed a spot. He has what looks like either little bubbles, or little grains of salt sticking to his body and fins. After a little research, I found that ich sometimes looks like grains of salt. The person I bought the tank from said that it had been sitting in her shed for quite some time. I really had to clean it up, because there was a lot of dirt and dust everywhere. Could the fungus survive?
He's been in two tanks since he got home - Wilson's old tank, as a temporary tank, and this second hand one. We scrubbed out Wilson's old tank, but could it be a possibility that he might have caught it from the tank that Wilson died in?
If it is ich, what do you guys recommend I treat with?
