I have a 23in RTC in a 180 gal tank now be for you flam me it is only untill dec 15th when i move out of this apartment and in to my house i just bought. I lived with my parents they sold there house and moved in to and apartment with out enoughf space for me, i had bought a 250 gal but i cant set both of them up in my apartment. He is in there with a 20in RTCxTSN and a 16in marble achara. And 4 Oscars. (I know I kNOw) When i moved on the 10th of Nov i managed to save about 40-50% of the original water from tank, some was with the fish and them about 50gal was saved in a rubermaid tub with out fish in it, the apartment was 5min away. got it there and set it up right away. I did a 20% water change about 6 days ago, and dint notice anything. then tonight i was geting ready to feed some talapia and notice some raised bumps that were red on the belly mouth and tail area of my RTC but all my other fish are fine. I did a water test and all levels are normal. I did notice that the water smelled like chlorine when i was filling it up the first time, i added extra water conditioner and smelled the water befor adding the fish. but i think when i did the water change the conditioner may have taken a while to work. I dont know. any ideas, im shur its not ammonia burn. here is some bad pics. o yeah i forgot to mention he has been grasing / scraching / scraping sideways across the bottom. there is nothing besides supstrate and a floting plant in the tank right now for him to scrape him self on.
