Hi,

I'm only posting the Neon Tetra because it's in my catfish community tank. And i'm worried if this could spread to anything else. From my research it looks like a cotton wool infection, and this is all over it's nose area. But please tell me if i'm wrong or what it could be.
I have since put it in quarantine with a small dose of Blue Planet Fungus Cure that has the main ingredients of Acriflavine and Malachite Green.

Thanks

It looks like columnaris to me. Though called mouth fungus, it is a bacterial infection which requires antibiotics to cure.

Hi,

Thanks for that link, it does sound like that for sure. And seems to be bad, i just hope others in the tank didn't get it before i moved the sick one out. I will just have to keep an eye on the rest for a while.

Appreciate it, Macrae
