Doesn't look like flukes, but have you tried a freshwater dip to see if they fall off?

No they are about to get a dose of prazi tomorrow. I’m not sure what they are looks like somethings been biting him almost but I don’t know how they could of got him around the eyes like that.

Over what period of time have you noticed this? Doesn't look like flukes to me either. Around the eyes it looks like HLLE but the white elevated masses on the mid torso definitely look concerning.

Just got him like 2 hours ago. However I didn’t notice them at first because he was so off colored (almost white) from shipping. The ones on the sides actually go inward not outward picture is deceiving. It reminds me of where flukes have been and have freshly fallen off. Least the ones the body not so much the eyes.

I’m gonna let him calm down he’s really worked up. I have the lights off and the QT procedure starting to prazi begins tomorrow. I might try a FW dip tonight depending on his behavior. He’s slammed into the glass a couple times now I’m just gonna let him be for a few hours. He’s definitely fat and appears to be healthy other than the spots.

Those are actually on the fish!? [emoji33]

Yes I I was able to capture the fish 3 times each last night and pick them off with tweezers I bet I got around 50 of them out. Every time I would put the fish back in more would jump on. I did this until that wasn’t happening anymore.

Fish are good today nothing on them I was worried when I went to bed I’d find them dead in the morning covered in those things
