Hi, i have just noticed that one of my 2 Oscars has got some white triangular chunks missing from his head...it sort of looks like he has had bites taken out of him, as they are quite deep set (about 2/3 mm?). They weren't there yesterday so i only assumed he had been fighting, only they all seem to get on fine usually, that i can tell.....although i'm worried it might be something more sinister.
Parameters:
The water is changed on a weekly basis (approx 50%) and added to the buckets, before tipping it in, is aquasafe liquid. He is housed with a Clown Knife, 3 pangasius, 3 plecs and an Aulonocara male, so it is cleaned of faeces that regular too.
The temp. is 27/28 degrees consistently.
The nitrates and ammonias are normal.
The Oscars in particular are fed veg flake and mixed flake, white shrimp, peas,sea food sticks, beef heart flake and Hikari Red floaters and cucumber , so can anybody suggest what's going on and why, please beacause i have no idea what's up.
Mnay thanks.
