Banded pipefish - disease ID

[georgealac1]

Hello,

I need help identifying what is wrong with my banded pipefish. It’s still in quarantine and feeding well I’ve had him for 3 weeks now. It looks to me like ulcers but I’m not sure… has anyone else experienced something like this? If so what did you treat it?
Thank you!

This looks like vibriosis which affects this group and is often treatable with neomycin (seachem neoplex)

Welcome to Reef2Reef!

It does look like a bacterial infection.

Just checking - is it alone in the QT or are there other fish in with it?
