Default Need advise for my RTG....

Hi,

would require some advise on my RTG. There is a red spot on the bottom of the body and i have tried using salt and Furang G (yellow powder medication for a month) and have performed 30-40% of water changed, result is still the same. As i am not sure of this disease, kinda of afraid to get other medication.

This is not my pic, managed to get one from the disease gallery, but its similar.

Hope you will be able to advise and very much appreciated.

Many Thanks,
dirtyflare.

Hi Bro,

IMO, this aint any disease. I will not advice you to increase the salt content Nor medicate it - without knowing if this is caused by bateria / parasite. Medication can be deadly and the price to pay in high.
Do try to take some pic of your aro. This may be a abrasion/or it may be natural. Juz maintain good water quality.

I agreed. Sometime don't over do it. Just maintain good water quality.
