Pleco Disease ID

[Orthopod]

Have you tested your water?

Yes

If I did not test my water...

1. ...I recognize that I will likely be asked to do a test, and that water tests are critical for solving freshwater health problems.

Do you do water changes?

Yes

If I do not change my water...

1. ...I recognize that I will likely be recommended to do a water change, and water changes are critical for preventing future freshwater health problems.

Any thoughts what this is?

Could be protozoan. I’d dose some seachem paragaurd.

Caused by dirty water. Sometimes the pleco gets that when they are from a clean tank and not used to it. Best is to change water every other day at about 25 percent. I dose it with antibiotics and it helps but water change is required.
