ich scars TTM

[Zacktosterone]

My tang is in its last couple of days of tank transfer. The ich has left some nasty scars on the tang...... Or is it ich.... I have no idea what it is. It doesnt look like ich. There are no more protrutions of white spots on the fish. Now all that remains are these weird yellowish spots that havnt gone anywhere or changed at all for a week. There's no rocks in the tank just PVC so its not scrapping marks. Also he hasn't been scratching anyway.

Are these scars or what??

They almost look like scabs

I was thinking that it might be Turbellarian but I've been using prazipro for the last 6 days. I'm running it again today. Every time I TT I add a dose

Are those spots raised, got a funny texture, or just looking like a loss of pigmentation?

No I'm not sure. I've never had a problem with Brooke

They are not raised believe it or not. They look like they have a slight texture to them. When I net or pick up the fish to transfer it feels smooth

any fighting from the other tangs going on? that looks more lake abrasions to me..

the only instances of brook that ive seen look a bit different.

what other abnormalities are seeing in the fish? behavior, eating, etc

All the other fish are in perfect health, no fighting at all. All eating like pigs, no hiding, no heavy breathing from any. The ONLY abnormality in that quarantine is that tangs skin

Fair chance it's localized depigmentation from the previous ich. Raise the temp up to around 80 to 84 and feed him well. That should speed up the healing process.
