    Default White patch?

    What the heck is this?

    Noticed this when I got home today?
    Just preformed a 50% water change yesterday.

    They have all been rowdy lately, this guy is a pretty aggressive egg thief.

    Hard to tell from the pictures. Does it look like a pimple? If so check your nitrates. My guess a couple of large water changes will fix that.

    It's almost completely gone today.
    I'm guessing he got spooked and ran into something.

    Ok, I was wrong.
    Whatever this is it's spread to almost all the discus in the tank.

    It's really hard to get a picture, but it looks like they are shedding their slime coat?

    So far this is the only one getting dark

    The only real changes I've made to the tank were
    Adding flourish excel to try knock down some algae on plants I dipped in a peroxide mix.
