I just noticed that my 24” tigrinus has something on both sides of its gills. It looks like an infection of some sort or a flesh eating bacteria cause i notice that the soft part of the gills looks like its being eaten away or rotting. It doesnt look like its been bullied by any of the tankmates as the lesion looks like its coming from inside the gills.
i dont have any idea what might cause this problem as ive kept it for a bit over 4 years with the tank parameters sitting consistently at
0 ammonia
0 nitrite
40-80 nitrate
idk if its because of me feeding the tank more frequently which caused because theres these slime like things on my pumps and wavemakers and also on one corner of the tank where the tigrinus usually stays. Im not sure though because this is the first time that, that appeared in my tank. even back then when there was 8 17-20” asian arowanas in my tank it has never happened.
the tank is 350 gal 6x4x2 btw. Hope to have a better understanding regarding whats happening to my tig. Thanks so much!
