I literally just noticed these now when he turned around. Hes got these two white patches on his side, and a odd white spot on his head.

He made this nearly impossible to get these pictures.

Tank Information-
55 Gallon
Running a Penguin 300 and an Aquaclear 110
Tank has been set up since last Sunday, 70% of the water from the original 29G was transferred over into the new tank.
I do not currently have the tank parameters on me. If needed I can get them first thing tomorrow.

Tank mates-
Two(2), 2 inch Green Severums
Two(2), Firemouth Cichlids: One large, One small
Three(3), 3 inch Tinfoil Barbs
One(1), 3 inch Jaguar Cichlid
One(1), 2 inch Clown Pleco L162
One(1), 3 inchButterfly Pleco L52
One(1), 5 inch Royal Pleco L190

Feeding- Mostly Hikari pellets. Also given high grade flaked food, frozen food, and live shrimp once in a while.


From what I have seen no one messes with the pike as he is the largest fish in the tank. I haven't seen any aggression from him towards anyone else. I find this kind of strange. He does sleep under the heater, could it be a burn mark from that? I love my Pike. I would hate to see something happen to him. :cry:
 
BUMP

I am leaving for Tampa for three days in two hours. I need some idea on what to do here.
 
you cant tell what anything is from those pics
 
Thats the quality of my camera. Ill have to try to get better images. Kinda pisses me off that it took this long for someone to say something.
