    Picked this guys up a few days ago.
    He was at the lfs for about a month and the tanks are treated with prozipro.
    Noticed this last night... there is a mark in front of his eye and a small white dot on one fin. Any ideas? Doesn't look like ick.
    Hes acting completely normal.
    Hopefully u can see in the pics.

    is it on both fins?

    how about on the body?

    look like a possible fin rot/fungus IMO

    look up HLLE for the scar on the face

    Beautiful tang
