Try transmore the fish...scrap off the pimples, apply some medi or salt directly onto the wound's for a minit or two.

U so frequent Wc and medi the aqueous system...the bio filtration can go kaput lei.

My aro is having the same pimples... First it was just a couple and now there is a good amount.

It cannot be my water though, I change my water twice a week 30-40% each time for my rays..I add salt and recently turned up my temp to 87F

Anybody else cure these pimples yet?

hi can try melafic my recently have this pimple on tail try melafic now seem recovering

u can try Azoo arowana magic treater.

I had the same pimples.
I too thought it was parasitic.
I also had other tank mates.

It's one of the other tank mates biting the fins that is causing the issue.
Cure is water change add salt. Takes a bit of time but they go away.
Your going need to separate the affected fish from it's tank mates so it can heal.

I have tried melafix, prazi, and erythromycin with no luck. I have continued twice a week water changes of 40-50% adding salt after every change and still no luck. He has had it for 2 months already and it is not getting any better at all.

Nobody is picking on my aro, he is the king of my tank.

I may try to scrape them off when I move him to his new home.

I tried to capture soem pictures.. anyone have some advice? What kind of meds should I be using?
