White slime on Stripped Raphael Catfish

[donthitmyhead]

Today I saw some white slimes peeling off my Stripped Raphael Catfish's body. Is that normal catfish slime or some sort of disease?

alot of cats will sluff off their slime coat, totally normal. as long as your water tests fine no worries.

I've bee keeping a Raphael for two years now and never saw any slime on him.

Thanks for the replies. My water is fine and I can only see the white slimes occasionally if I look really closely. The catfish is pretty active, busy digging his den under his driftwood.
