Hello
I have my 6 line wrasse on my QT and I noticed one white spot on its Tail on each side on the same area. And it also notice a white bump on mouth with red around it.

Qt is being treated with copper.

Welcome to Reef2Reef!

How long have you had the fish?
What copper product and dose are you using?
Is the fish still eating (sometimes, mouth lesions stop a fish from eating properly)

To me, still eating is a good sign, so I would not try any additional treatments unless it stops feeding....just stick with the copper for now.

I was wondering the same thing about my 6-line. It has the same exact white spots. I looked at the pictures of other ones, they have it too, most of them at least.

The white spots at the top of the tail is natural coloring. They have a 'false eye' there. Both of mine have it.
