Hi,
Sometime back I noticed few of my fish (Tarpons) showing signs of red streak/line inside their mouths did water changes and it went away. And later again it came back after few days with pelvic fin bases/the joint slightly turning red. The redness in the pelvic fin base it disappears when I starts the wave maker in the morning or with partial water change but inside the mouth it reduces very slowly.
Ammonia levels show below 0.2 , Nitrites 0 and nitrates below 0.2 (from long time)
(It's not Viral Hemorrhagic Septicemia for sure if it is then the whole tank should show symptoms long time ago)
It's a 135gal tank I have 2 air stones and a wave maker for aeration and circulation
I have added a K1 moving bed filter along with the smaller overhead sump I had.
