I have been in this hobby for the last 5 years and I have never seen Brown spots on my fish. YesterdaY I noticed a couple really small brown spots on my Blood Parrots head at first I wondered if they where always there but then noticed them on my other Blood Parrot today. the tank has been set up for 4 years and I do 30% water changes twice a week. in the tank there are also a Reticuleted Ray a pair of Emperor Sharks a 12-13" Pleco and an Arowana. Any Ideas what it is and how to treat it?

those might be ammonia burns. Test the ammonia and do 50% water changes until the ammonia level is back to normal. Hope this helps. Good Luck.
There is a disease called "Black Spot", where symptoms are small, 2mm, black or brown spots. This usually happens to coldwater fish though. Hmmm...
yeah just try doing an ammonia test and also bump up the temperature as said above. Riasing the temperature can kill alot of bacteria and virus's that you dont want in your tank. Keep us posted and Good Luck.
