Hey guys,

This is the first time ive ever had any sort of disease or parasite or whatever on my fish. i noticed this on my Carpintis today on one if its fins. its also showing up a little on its dorsal fin. its some sort of red bumpy growth, and its fairly thick. i know for sure its not fin rot.

fungus? bacteria? please help!! pics are really bad, the fish was hiding in the corner. going to bed, ill check back tomorrow morning.

thx!

BUMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Bacterial infection. Fungal infections seldom occur. I'd quarantine that fish and treat with Maracyn.
