Hi MFK,
I have a quick question as I have a slight concern about my fish and not sure whats the best thing to do at this point.
I first notice a tiny off white spot what must be a month ago or more. Took a picture June 26th and another one today. See below. Its the only 2 pictures I have that show it.

on my thread found above you can see as of may 7th the first sign of it. In the april photo there was nothing there.
I recently did a 5 day Epson salt treatment and followed by a 3 day NLS hex shield treatment (end of june) because of some weird poops he was having which is not an issue anymore.
This spot is looking more like a small hole now and not just a surface blemish. I am wondering if this is [possible the start of hith!? if it is how did it survive the epson salt and NLS treaments just a bit ago?
So what do I do now? Nothing, wait and see if it continues to grow or more show up? Another epson salt 5 day treatment? or another NLS hex shield treatment?
I do have small twigs and branches in the tank, its also a possibility that he poked himself and thats what caused it but I can't be certain about anything.
I just feel a little sick to my stomach about all of this and hoping for some advice and thoughts.
I should add that he is eating very well and super active and shows great color ect ect.
My tank maintenance and food choices are imo of very high quality. also a stress free environment.
Thanks in advance,
Philip
