Any reason to be concerned....

Hello forum.

I currently have a hippo and sailfin tangs (both medium) size in a 20QT, treating them with cupramine for 1 week now.

They both eat very well and the sailfin body looks fine.

On the other hand, I noticed on both sides of the hippo's body, there'a a white line going across all horizontally the black marking that goes from his eye to its tail.

Should I be concerned? Apart from that, he's very active and eats like a pig.

Does that white line look like a cut or anything?

I will try to take some - he just moves so fast that it's hard to get a good shot.

I think I may have found the answer..

Looks like the first picture:

It looks like it's some sort of lateral disease
