flakes found on aro

dear bros , my aro has appeared with white colour flakes on his gills today.

Currently , these white " stuff" has been only on his gills.

may i know what this could be and what can i do ?

My dad suggested pouring in MYCOPUR by sera , i'm not sure whether that's the right thing.

Change abit of water, throw in more salt and raise temp abit to 29'C if temp is too low in there.

seriously.. i am not sure.. i just blow everything away.. but i am quite sure that it could be a sudden change in water condition that could the mucous layer on the fish body to drop off which can't be good.. take care of the water perimeter.. u might wan to add abit of epsom salt as it helps in increasing of mucous layer on the fish body

my water parameters is very bad due to the high nitrate. nothing i can do about it , cause i will be upgrading my tank very soon and it will be planted. so i have no idea for any solution of my current tank setup which is 3ft.

Bro zann the white colour flakes on the aro gills is it on one side ?
from the front view it look like something come out from the gills ?
look like my aro also have it yesterday night quickly switch on the
heater overnight . To come back from work the aro can eat & swim
seem like no problem.Mybe yesterday WC 30% 。I think what bros Koji &
^GeNoME^ said is correct.Water perimeter .
