I would appreciate it you all could please tell me what to treat this white colored, scab-like growth on my Betta's side with.
It started small, and I assumed that he just scatached a few scales off, but it has continually grown over the past month to what you see in the photo, and I'm concerned for my fishe's health. So far, he (or she) eats and acts healthy, but I can't imaginge that this growth doesn't adversely affect his health.
The lady at Petco working in the fish section had no knowledge of fish; she had to use a book to try to find a remedy to the problem to no avail. I finally bought some drops fro API called "Stress Coat" that's supposed to be good for fish abrasions, but it hasn't helped.
My fish is in a 2.5 gallon tank with a charcoal filter, and I keep the water clean.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you,
Barrett
