Hello everyone!
I’m gonna get down to it. I’ve got an approximately five-year-old flowerhorn that is approx 12+ inches. Over the last year or so he had developed white splotchy patches on his face and some on his fins. I have no idea what these are or where they are from. Water params are all good, weekly water changes and eats once daily. My nitrates tend to be fairly high, so I don’t know if I need to do more frequent or larger water changes. Any help is greatly appreciated.
