Noticed a small hole in my Trachy yesterday, figured it was nipped by a fish.

woke up this morning to 30% + of the flesh gone around the original hole.

Is this brown jelly diseas? Anything I can do at this point or is it a goner?

Never mind, pulled out out and turkey basted around the infected parts and it pretty much disintegrated.

What a bummer.

Did a water change yesterday. I’ve got a new batch going.

Alk 9.4
Nitrate 10
Phosphate .09 (working on lowering this)
Calcium 425
Salinity 1.026
