Feathery growths

Post by Firestorming »

Good evening ladies and gents, well I have been absent from the forums for a while working on all sorts of projects, and I have come back seeking some sagely advice. I have noticed on some of my Peckoltia species an odd feathery growth primarily on the head, near the nasal area. Any ideas on what it might be and a way to treat or remove.

Thanks in advance!

I appreciate the idea of an ancistrus, but have a look at my cats list, I am confident ( as much as one can be without catching them personally) of what my catfish are.
