so last night in feeding i did not notice this so i dont know if its come up over night or been there a few days ive been a little preoccupied with possibly moving and im afraid this has gone unnoticed by my partner or myself. Mushu usually is up the top of his bay and i noticed him on the gravel which is unusual for him and found this. its pineconed on his cheek but no where else i QTd him immediatly.
I also added some AQ salt to the container before floating it in a tank to keep warm
