I've never even heard of a redtail being that small, but Dr. Schleser is a highly respected guy...

It's covered in fish lice. Really really bad. Doesn't even look like a redtail.

looks like the pattern of the fish to me. that many lice he would be dead

Nope it's lice. Check the fins. They're raised bumps.

I've been told that Tats ARE spotted when really small.
