Hello colleagues, I need help. I have some sick Hypancistrus like the one in the photo, what do they have and how can I cure them?
Thank you very much
Hello Mpulungu,

What are we seeing in this picture? Are the white spots bumps? Can you please give us more information?

Thank you, Eric

Nunca he visto algo como lo que está en la foto. Estoy pensando en algún tipo de tumor o infección viral de algún tipo. ¿Podría ser alguna forma de parásito?

Una imagen más grande y de mejor calidad podría ayudar.

I was thinking exactly the same thing. A better photo and perhaps more info about tank conditions or history of the disease. How long has the fish had this? Did the disease start in your tank or did the fish have this when you got it? Is it changing (growing) or staying the same size on the fish's body? Is the fish's behavior affected? Is the fish eating normally?

Regards, Eric

The fish does remember me of a viral infection - such infections are very hard to cure. The most important thing is to protect the other fishes

El pez me recuerda de una infection viral - esta infectiones son un problemo cuidar. El mas important es protegir los otros peces

I have no idea what is wrong with your fish but I am very impressed with the breeding caves in the wood. Can you tell me how you made that?
