hey guys. I'm worried about losing my two big tems.....they have these strange white spots and scars over their bodies. I know what their patterns look like. they got these spots a few months...maybe during june? then recently...i started loosing my other bass. I've lost 1 Orinocensis and 1 Mono.

Anybody can help? really worried....it took forever to get these guys to thier size!! :cry: Totally dun wanna loose them...HELP!!!

Sorry for your loss bro, I have not seen that before but hopefully someone will reply soon to help you out! U should also try posting this in fish disease forum. All I can do is give ur post a bump to the top! Good luck and I hope he gets better! You should also check and post all your water parameters
 
looks like hith to mee.... could be wrong better pics needed!!!
if HITH is the case... you need better water quality (filtration) & a better diet!!
sorry for your loses.. and i hope we can help you pulled these guys out of danger!!!
 
Sorry for your losses. I was thinking HITH too, but i'd wait for more of the Pbass experts to chime in.

:iagree: check out the pitting thats happening on the tems heads.. id step up your water changes and get them onto a good varied diet, bump the temp too.
 
im agree as welll.
IMO, deffinately HITH...
gl, and get that temp up!!
whats their daily diet like? they deffinately look beefy enough...
 
It's odd, the line of damage across the top of the fish doesn't appear anywhere near the lateral line? Unless peacocks have a high, arching lateral line or a secondary one...It does appear to be targetting the same spot on the fishes' heads though. Are they pits, or just white scars in the skin?
 
deff hith, you have to much bioload and bad water quality
 
get the temp. up,make sure the waters stable.
feed a varied diet,if they still eat.
hope you dont lose those guys.
 
man!....how the hell am i supposed to do a water change with my pond!? these guys are fed twice a day on prawn meat......and some fish meat.....its an out door pond, so how wld i be able to raise temp? What are the ideal water parameters? is HITH lethal? its both pitting and scaring.
