I'm not a regular poster, but thought I would post up my bad news...I woke up to this morning to find that my favorite fish had succumbed to some kind of disease. I noticed earlier in the week that it had white stringy feces, and what appeared to be a white pimple-like thing on the side of its head. I suspected internal parasites, and tried to treat it, and then the pimple thing popped and formed a white scar tissue that grew to about the size of a dime. Just yesterday, its breathing became labored, and I knew that was about it.

I bought the umbie from Rapps about 7 years ago at 1.5". Wasn't the best looking out there, but still bummed...
