so i had my hybrid for a month now and was doing great but hes gotten lazier and lazier each day and now his right eye is foggy and so is the top of his head lik a grey color is on him and idk what it can be....he doesnt move at all when the lights are on but moveds when their off...can it be the start of ich??
 
The whole light thing is normal. But I'd suggest testing your water then get back with us..
 
^^ the water is fine...all my other fish are perfect but he seems to be gettin sumthing and i wanna catch it b4 it gets worse...im shooting towards ich??
 
Yeah I hear ya. Is it possible to get pics? I know your new but you can load pics on photobucket then link it here, that will give us all a better shot at identifing the problem. It sounds to me that your cat is super stressed. What are his tank mates? And what size is the tank? Ich is a white spot(s) that can make a fish lethargic but really only in the advance stages..
 
no its not white spots...i kno ich lol its a slioght white milky slime lookin coat...slightly clear slighty milky on his eye and head..very slight tho and idk wut it is and hes super lazy and wont move witht the lights on....histank mates are...2 koi,....1 oscar and 2 other catfish in a 55 gallon( i kno their not suppose 2 be together( all doing fine not fighting) and the tank is to small but im upgrading soon)
 
i wanna catch it early...the water is fine and he eats and everything... i put medicine in from mardel called marcide or sumtin...it seems to be clearing up a lil...ima keep my eye on him...the next dose is tomorrow so weil see
 
yeah same here..everythign is fine but for some reason my arowana is not...i havent add medication yet..i am just doing WC every 2-3 days...also my aro has some white spots stickin out by its face....not a lot but jsut a few.
 
if thats the case... try to change quarter of the water... and within few days update us.... works for my fish....
 
Mine has this also and he is in his tank all by himself but I changed the brands of water conditioner and used one with more of a stress coat. It seemed to help a lot. His skin looks much darker and more smooth. Almost like he just needed a little help getting his slime coat back.
