Yah, such a thorough explanation. Can recommend which vet u went to?

I'll explain in short the background:
I took a smear of the infected parts, brought it to my vet who advice me to bring it to a laboratoy. There they confirmed that it was neither a fungi nor a bacterial disease, but cannot really tell me what disease that is, because i only wanted a quick research on the smear. A more detailed investigation would have lasted longer and would be more expensive!

So i did more detailed investigation on my own, looking for similar diseases via internet and went into a bookstore where i finally found books about fish disease. After going through the books page by page, i found a similar looking disease, but i wasnt sure if it was the same one my are got. So i went to a fish shop and together with the owner, we discussed and checked again his books of disease and were very sure due the symptoms my aro was showing that it was that special disease. Again, oodinium in the EARLY stage can be mislead people thinking its ICHTY. But in the later stage the disease shows the same dots, fungi like parts on my aro. And in fact only this disease/parasite was looking similar. All other diseases frankly speaking were looking completly different.
