Yea :( lost my mandarin last night. Potentially old age, probably brook or whatever this is though. He was really big and fat, but randomly died :( found him headless and skinned, like a mini grilled fish taco. It was sad.

I'm following to see what I can learn with you. I was told that temp fluctuating will trigger dormant ich. I'd really like to learn from your experience.
Yea I’ve heard that too. I’ll keep you in the loop!

Please do.
We are having trouble getting a positive ID. She told me the protocol for each but I wish I knew what exactly it was.

You've probably already seen this, but on the off chance the info is helpful, here goes :)

Are you going to wait it out? Just see what recovers on it's own?
I’ve been doing that. I need to do something. It’s so hard to watch. I care a lot for these guys, I want to see them healthy.

I just sent you some more info via pm, but... one other thing not considered so far, could possibly be bacterial/viral? You said the tank was overheated for a week... maybe caused some sort of bloom? I just can’t see a tang covered in velvet living for a month like that... maybe brook.

@HotRocks @4FordFamily @BigG could use a few more eyes on this to get a positive ID. My first instinct looking at the photos was velvet, description sounds more like brook...
It’s been said that nothing at all has been added recently, but there was a heating incident while on vacation a month ago which is when symptoms started...

Where are the pics? I've looked over the last three pages of this thread and can't locate them.
