Took a new video here, although it’s tough to see the spots. It actually faded a bit, more like they’re starting to fade to black again. When I first got the fish, from being transported, it did have a lighter black stripe day 0 which started to darken to what it is now after I placed it in the DT.beautiful video you took but fish is distant and its hard to see fish in whole as it is moving around a lot going after food
Although not out of the woods, I’m starting to think maybe it’s certain at this point it’s not ich and just something weird like the mucus blocking or maybe it’s just slight discoloration of a few scales from whatever stress? I feel like ich would be more distinctive and easy to spot and make out like in a video, etc. I have to look hard today to even see the spots, which are now a blend of blue and black it seems.
Just as I typed this again, it farted a bunch of bubbles and then proceeded to chase them to the surface (stress from being gassy?). Wish I had that on camera.
