I have 12" female (15mth old) and 10" male (12 mth old) in the last month or two the female starts to have like either bite marked or fungus, I thought it is fungus. So I added salted in my weekly water changed, but it hasn't improved. Sometime it was red but not it is like white, I have seen the male hassled her a lot, but they are too young for mating aren't they??? Oh!! The tank mate is only 48" silveraro and one blood parrot . What do you guy think, bite marked or fungus/diseased, she eats as normal (usually anything) water meter. Ammo 0 , nitrite 0, ph around 7, nitrate .5

Sorry guys, 24" silver aro not 48"
 
Take a picture of the males claspers. My female motoro got pregnant at 11 in. Could be breeding activities. Males that dont know what they are doing can do a lot of damage

Male is mature. Probably breeding behavior.
