Delhezi bichir has some unknow pustule. Please help!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Look alot like fungus(white spot disease), I can't see it very clearly though but if the white spot are actually are scales and its look like about to fall off then i'm 80% sure that it is white spot disease.
You can to your regular pet store to buy the drug for the disease that i mention above and for now I think you should change 40-50% of your tank water.
 
I've never seen this sort of thing on bichirs, except on the operculum of wild caught polypterids, but never knew what it was.

If you do try drugs, you already know you're shooting in the dark, so an anti biotic drug like maracyn, maracyn2, or tetracycline are a great start, since most fungal infections are secondary infections to a bacterial one, meaning that if you treat the bacterial infection first, the fungal infection would be cleared vicariously.

That being said, I still have no clue what these pustule like structures are, but I'm willing to bet that with better care they'll be okay.


Are they eating?
