Snakehead with some sort of parasite

[cheon]

Got this guy 2 weeks ago andstarted to notice in the last week some sort of growth on him looks like branches are growing outta him. I have salted the tank and my parameters are good. Here are some pictured u can see the growth off his fins and bottom of his jaw. I was thinking of using prazi pro 2morrow. Their are 2 id sharks in the same tank that are perfectly fine.

Looks like argulus, or fish lice. It is a crustacean, and needs to be treated with an organophosphate based medication. Argulus usually arrive via feeder fish.
This is a common malady of koi, check koi sites for commercial BAT (best available technology)products, Dimilin is one that comes to mind.

Pics are not clear... If tat parasite looks disc shape means its argulus... U need to treate the whole tank... Google it for treatment methods... One of the dangerous parasite
