Common Pleco disease identification and treatment help
Posted: 17 Nov 2016, 01:16
Hello,
I have a 2 year old common Pleco he lives in a 55 gallon tank. Water was partially changed last week. He has stopped eating zucchini, for over a month now. He used to eat a whole one every 3 days. He rarely eats a wafer. He was on the tank wall eating two days ago. However, today we noticed this marble sized growth on his side. We asked our local pet stores for advice when he was not eating and tried many different things. None have worked, now this. Please see photo. He has not moved today but is breathing. I am at a loss what to do, I am out of town and my bc is willing to do whatever is needed. I am new here so I apologize If this is in the wrong place or I left something out.
Thank you for your time
