Well, my little leopard ctenopoma isn't swimming very good, has clamped fins and i noticed a few white spots by its gills and on top of it's head. i'm almost 100% sure it isn't ick though.

so far i have set up a tupperware quarentine tank with a seeded filter and heater, and i have added aquarium salt to it and am going to increase heat a little.

is there anything else i can do, and any idea what it could be?
 
ITS GETTING WORSE! he is turning over and trying to swim but he really isn't doing very good at it at all.

the only other med i have is coppersafe, would it help to add that into the quarantine? right now i still just have salt in the tank.

HELP I DON'T WANNA LOSE HIM!!!!
 
idk if was just the current or what, but he seems to have an easier time swimming now as he isn't flipping over....its looking more likely that he might pull through.
 
i checked him this morning, and he is just as bad as he ever was. he is still swimming all wierd and idk what to do. i can't get him to eat any food, and the only thing i have in there is salt, so should i pick up a med of some sort?
