Pike Freckles

[Pirwhana]

I have a question. My lucius has just started to develop what looks like freckles on his body. SHould I be worried?

I'm no expert in pikes but I wouldn't be worried. If I saw my fish getting "freckles" I would just watch it a while.

Are they light colored spots or dark colored spots? They are in the spangled pike group.

SHoot us some pictures yo! My pikes got some black splotches on them, had NO IDEA what they were (they were on my sp. 'cobra')...they eventually went away...no harm to the fish. Its possible there is something in your water or what not.

I would take pictures but my pike bolts into hiding when I whip out the camera

Trick it then, feeding time is a great time to snap shots... Or sit down infront of the tank, and be patient. Takes a little time, but you CAN do it!
