Cornbread, I've read tons of posts where people would tell someone their (usually) Flowerhorn has "duck lips". Although the fish would look normal to me in the picture. I finally had to go look it up but all I found were a bunch more references to forums where people were telling people their FH had duck lips lol! I'm starting to wonder if anyone really knows what it is, or if they just like saying the words 
One word..Deadly..All my FH dies from this disease. I was only able to cure one in all the FH i've kept.
Heyitsduy42, so is it a fungas? Bacterial? Is it contagious from fish to fish? It always seems to be FH's I hear about it with. I wonder if it's something like what happened with Dwarf Gourami Disease? And fish are being bred that may or may not show signs.
