So I had a seahorse that unfortunately got snout rot and passed, I had recently gotten this baby seahorse to go with him. I removed the baby seahorse from the tank and put her in a small tank of her own and immediately began quarantine for her. I didn't want to take the risk so I began medicating her as well, it's been 2 and a half weeks and she has been acting fine, but her snout has this white spot on it and I can't tell if she just naturally has that spot and the lighting is just bringing out all of her colors, or if it's snout rot that had been in the same spot for 2 weeks. Can somebody please take a look at her and help identify if she's fine or not.
