What happened to my severum?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Sry for ur loss :(.... certainly not a fish attack... more like a fungus to me not sure.... anything unusual u did?
 
Thanks. Nothing unusual other than that water change, but he could have been like that before I did it, not sure. I have been feeding them probably more than I should, that's about it. Nothing out of the ordinary and all the other fish are doing well in the tank.
 
Almost looks like a heater burn...just a guess though. Sorry for your loss.
 
Oh, man that sucks, sorry to see you lost him. I have been beating the streets trying to find some red severums that size. Looks like heater burns to me as well.
 
Heater is in the sump, not possible. It does look like some type of fungus now that people have mentioned it, as the skin looks almost like it's deteriorating. What could have caused that? How can I prevent it in the future? Why didn't I see it earlier? Might my other fish have it now?
 
I've seen it, it can kill a fish in a day, really nasty disease. Did he have ich before because it come s after the ich.
