Hi all,

Here is the scenario, almost half of my fish in a 4 tanks central filter system is growing white spot on their body!!

i believed it is not ick as my water temp is always above 28C and change with same temp aged water. My fish is shaking their body, i think it must be some external parasite disease.

Water temp 30C, Ph 7.0, Ammonia 0.

It started almost 2 week ago, when two juvi discus has gill fluke, i removed them to hospital for treatment.

one week ago, one of the discus has white spot on tail fin, so i just raise the temp to 30C and add salt.

a few days ago, almost half of my fish has white spot on them, so i just added mutli-cure in all tanks. i only put 20% of suggested dosage because i got baby discus in one tank.

Until now the white spot is still spreading !!!

Any advices, comments are welcomed!!

I would raise the temp above 90F, extra aeration. Salt noniodized at 5 tblsp /. 10 gal.
