Im Thinking these spots are bacterial. Fish has been in qt for quite some time. It has Been treated with GQ and prazi. Seems healthy eats and acts fine. I treated with furan 2 the other day but only 1/2 treatment protocol. 1 dose 24 hrs then another dose. I've done a 25% WC. Started today with metro and kana with focus in food. Not sure where to go with this. Pictures in thread.

Yes missed on the furan 2 I thought I had another pack, turns out I didn't and had already dosed the tank, and of course it's not avaliable. The GQ and prazi treatments were over a month ago. Fish have been in the QT for quite some time. I just started the medicated food yesterday.
What would be the proper way to dose the water? It's a 50 gallon tank?
1 scoop per 5 gallons?
Same lesion on both sides of the fish? Are you sure this isn’t just the normal color change these go through?
Just not sure. It is odd that theyre the same on either side though! I have considered it as a possibility. The fish seems as healthy as can be. It has been in.my QT tank for over 3 months along with a convict. Both seem to be fine. I don't want to put the orange in my DT until I'm absolutely positive about its health. Just being so cautious about everything. Hoping the pictures were good enough this time for you to get a better look
I’m not sure either. Parasites are rarely bilaterally symmetrical. Bacterial infections from an injury wouldn’t be unless the same injury happened on both the sides. Head and lateral line erosion is symmetrical, but not in this location and not on this species…
