Folks... I need some urgent help. Here's the deal. This morning while doing a water change, I noticed that my Coral Beauty Angel did not come to greet me. Then when I was done, I put some nori in the tank to feed her. And then I noticed that she did not come out for it. After hunting for her... I realized that she was hiding, which was not like her (usually she has the biggest personality in the tank. Then after taking a closer look. She has a huge ulcer that's eating away at her under belly!!! I am worried that it might be Vibrio, but she just doesn't have ANY associated hemorrhage which is the key sign of Vibrio. Any thoughts?!?! I've prophylactically upped the temp and am beginning to drop the SG.
