I received four new fish from Live Aquaria on Thursday. Even though I introduced the fish with the lights off, my 2 damsels (Bonnie and Clyde) beat the crude out of all of the new comers for a few hours. By Friday, the damsels had stopped doing that and accepted the new inhabitants. I was doing tank maintenance this morning and noticed this spot on my new mandarin. First question, is this disease or an injury?
Note: I run a UV sterilizer sized for my 72g tank (15 watt). I have the flow rate set up to treat pathogens. The recommended flow by the OEM for this treatment philosophy is 233 gph. With a dedicated pump of 750 gph I'm still only getting 205 gph through the sterilizer.
If this is a disease, I'm actually headed to FJW in an hour so if I need to grab some treatment meds, I really kinda need to know ASAP what to get and how to treat this guy.
Thanks in advance!
