Pet Forum / Aquaria / Goldfish / September 2006Odd white thing
Alright, so, I've had my tank for about a year. About 6 months ago introduced a new fish to the aquarium (there was just one in i before). About 3 months afterward, I saw this odd white...."clump" o the edge of his tail fin. Does anyone have any idea what this is? It' since fallen off and the fish as matured in to adult hood. However, would want to be prepared if it's something that could happen again -- Crystal Fish > Alright, so, I've had my tank for about a year.

Since it was on the top tip of the fin. Ingrid: If it had been a white "spot" I would have posted about it. N offence but I read those posts and this is differant from what I'v seen -- Crystal Fish > It was fuzzy and flowy kinda.

Through it' unfortunate that his lovely orange spot has all but dissappeared an now he's compleatly white but still.
