Can anyone identify white disease might have killed this swordtail. It looked like a white patch with red spots. It was on the fish for about two weeks. Today the fish was dead and the red area in the first picture is just a hole in the fish with the white strands coming out. Not sure if these are just part of the normal organs or from the disease. It was purchased from a store and remained in a quarantine tank since the disease appeared before it was put into the main tank. The male died with similar systems the first week.
