I have a catfish that's about 4 to 5 inches long. I have been told its a featherfin squeaker, although I honestly don't know what he is. Ever since I moved him from my old aquarium to my newer 55 gallon aquarium, he has gotten these white spots on his head and along his body. I don't think its ich, because its almost like its in a pattern or row down the side of his body. I didn't have driftwood in my previous aquarium, and in my newer aquarium I do. He likes to hide underneath one of the larger pieces, so could this just be a result from rubbing the driftwood and rocks? He is easily the largest fish in the aquarium so he's not getting beaten up by any other fish. Any ideas?
