Anthias Brown Spot

[Cüneyt]

Hi All,

Any idea what is this brown area on my Anthias
It grow more in last 2-3 days

Fish is with me 5+1 harem for 3 weeks
All seems OK feeding etc

Thanks

Looks like problems with the anus or genital papilla. Can you see anyting sticking out from the opening ? This could be a real intestinal worm infection. Try to see if it is developed from the anus or the gential opening/papilla. They sitting close - it could be difficult.

Just look out so you do not see any worms sticking out. Is she eating good?

Dear Lasse

I can’t see she eats good like others they just pick 1- 2 pellets if they are lucky when my auto feeder feeds but they always stay in a gyre area where particular have circular flow to them

Probably she is eating

Btw, I didn’t see any worms but today more brown area it’s like fish is decaying
I see ****e spots in tail and near mouth too

This fish looks like a goner I afraid to loose my other stocks

This can be a internal bacterial disease. Which is impossible to say. Likely vibriosis or simulare disease

First - I would take it up from the aquaria. It can be a sink for these bacteria (if it is that) and go further to the others

I would try to take it up in a 10 or 20 litre bucket, put a powerhead, the fish and use some compounds with Nifurpirinol or Nitrofurazone. Hold it dark and no feeding. Maybe TTM every 2 days with new medicated water.

Just look at the others if a similare pattern show up. If it does - you can be rather sure that is an infection going on. Try to isolate asap. Many times isolation is the best way to stop an infectious disease - you take away the sink for the pathogens

By the way - it is a beautiful aquarium you have
