I have a dogface puffer in my fowlr that I noticed him flashing against the LR today a few times over the course of 5 minutes or so. When I looked closer I noticed small raised, almost black pimpled appearance around the skin of both eyes. The right side was worse. His eyes are clear and he is eating well. Also acting normal except that I noticed the flashing today.
I have seen white spot ich before and it doesn't look anything like that. It actually looks like the pimples originate beneath the skin, some appear dark and some are the same color of his skin. I apologize that I don't have pic.
The puffer is in a 125g with a foxface. Both were quarantined. The foxface has been in the tank with the puffer for 2 weeks and appears healthy, skin intact.
Does this sound like any disease or parasite that I am not familiar with? Should I watch and wait or place him into a quarantine?
