How do I ask a mod to move the thread? I'm so confused because there's like 50% of people saying it's a parasite and then about 50% of the other people say that it is fungal/bacterial. Then people tell me not to treat the clowns just watch them. It's a little frustrating for me. I don't want to cause more harm than good but at the same time don't want to leave them be if I should be treating them. Not quite sure who is sick if any of them are sick. You know?

Hit your red triangle on your first post. It is under your name. A box will pop up and ask for it to be moved to the fish disease forum. Try not to get frustrated, more of a learning experience. The folks over in the fish disease forum know their business. Hopefully Snorvich will see it.

Second the garlic statement. Every other week or so I smash a small clove in with a baby food jar filled with tank water and frozen food just as a preventative measure. Had a recent addition with some fin fungus, white puffy growths on his fins, a couple of months ago. Didn't notice it until it was too late and other tank members were infected. I fed with garlic everyday until it was all gone, took a matter of a few days.
