What is on my gar?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Here are some more pics I had taken earlier. The gar seems to be eating and behaving normally. I've bumped up the waterchanges. This is still theonly gar showing anything. Hadhad this growth for over a week already with little to know change.

This gar still has the growths on it's body. At this time there appear to be more ar well and are present on some of the other fins now. Still the only gar with these growths in the tank. Gar is still eating and otherwise bahaving normally.

Anything I should do to try to clear this up?
 
I would move it to a separate aquarium or pond, then bump the water temperature up, add some salt, & increase the water changes. This is something that will probably just have to run its course; I know that it took quite a while to get rid of the lymphocytis on the one Florida gar that I used to have and removing the spots in question didn't seem to help at all.
 
what the.... i don't think ive ever seen anything like that, get him out of your tank and into something else away from the rest of the fish
