If more white spots develop you need ick medicine, if you dont treat it early with medicine your fish will die. This happened to me before I saved all my blood parrots after i got medicine. And if your blood parrots have it odds is that your other fishes have it too so I would treat your entire tank.

Do a wc, then get a heater and set to 31-32 degC as well as add salt. I not a fan of any medication.

IMHO, White spots is cause mainly by huge water temperature swing/changes.
Have a Heater install and set it to 29*, not higher as it might encourage the white spot to boom. Insolation of fish if possible is best, as it's easily transmitted to other fishes. Hope this helps. |
