these black spots seem to only affect the silver dollar group rather than any other fish. the black spots look like small pimples. any suggestion/ experiences to help treat this disease? what treatments should i use to fight this parasite? Thanks:D
 
Pics would def help, but if it's a growth, it could be ich, fungus, or external parasites boring into your fish's skin
 
ill try to get a pic asap. the approximate size of 1 black spot is about 1mm very small but their are multiple spots im currently treatign with parasite clear.
 
Ive seen several Mytinis sp. break out in black spots, testing showed higher than normal nitrates...... good gravel clean / water change & added triple sulpher.... cleared in days.
