Hello All,

I am new to this forum, but have been following different threads, and readily access this forum when looking for help/ideas. I noticed today my green terror developed this white growth on his head and one on his side. Also my JD has had one similar growth on his side but it went away today. Now it looks like my JD has scratched away something along his lateral line. I noticed my GT also has white poop. Both fish eat with joy a variety of tetra min crisps, Hikari Gold Pellets, and about once every two weeks some beef heart. I run a 55 Gal Set up, and do 2 25% WC a week. I do not have water parameters as i need to go buy test strips, but was hoping someone could help guide me on what's happening. I love my GT and think I have caught this early enough. I am in college and only have this tank no access to a hospital tank. Any guidance is much appreciated. I apologize for quality of pictures they are pretty shy about camera.

Also, I gave away the Angel as it was getting bullied, it held its ground when all fish were juvenile but quickly could not hold on anymore.

Probably has worms if it had the white poop. I QTed mine when I got him and did an API general cure treatment. Completely fine now
 
It was just a scar and is 100% healed. Now white poop is still a problem with it. I was reading GT's have a hard time with bacterial infections. Trying the fast for one day, and feed peas method will post updates.
