Hi guys,
Need your expertise and experience. This chromis is the only fish in the 79 gallon tank. I bought the tank in August from an old man who had neglected it for a long time. There where some other fish in his tank but they didn’t make the move :(
Only this chromis pulled through and “she” is very special to me.
I haven’t added any new fish yet because I wanted to wait until I got the water params pristine (which they are now) and I also haven’t finished my stocking list yet (want to get it right). But I did add a clean up crew about 7-8 weeks ago - could they have carried some parasite with them?
She’s not flashing but she is twitching tho. And she sometimes suddenly swim superfast as if something is biting her tail. What can it be? Black ich? Hyper melanization? Bacteria?
It sure is something slow, cause I can’t remember her not having the black dots. The leison is relatively new though.

Oh, I forgot! On her other side she only has one small black dot - possibly raised...
 
.... oh no.
Not uronema..!
But how did she catch it? And I thought that Uronema was fast progressing - like really fast. She’s had the leison for about a week, wouldn’t she be dead by now if she has Uronema marinum?
