I have a new african cichlid tank. It is 60 gallons and I've had fish in it for a little over a week. Most or all of the fish have shiny scales around their gills. I know this is not good but I cant find online what it might be. Please help! (pics below, sorry its hard to get a good picture, the bumblebees seem to have it the worst atm)12271204_1203716829643944_1500381715_o.jpg 12290446_1203716782977282_1896770687_o.jpg 12295828_1203717006310593_1764287216_o.jpg 12298141_1203716989643928_306459713_o.jpg 12299501_1203716969643930_282278202_o.jpg
 
I've been reading a ton and it might be just regular gill plates? I'm just getting into the game and kinda freaked out when I seen unusual spots appear. Either way please let me know!
