Hey guys, a couple of days ago moved my niger trigger to his new tank from the qt, just now i noticed he had 2 white cotton-like spots on him.
I think triggers are prone to ich but everytone in the tank is fine. Hes not scratching up against anything and is eating very well. Ph 8.2, ammonia 0, nitrite 0, nitrate 10. Any suggestions?

Cottony-like spots are usual something fungal. He just developed this or do you think you missed it?

I had him in the qt and didnt see anything.I noticed he had a bit of red under his chin but he likes to squeeze inbetween rock so i figured he scrapd it on the rock but it wasnt white. Do u think i should put him back in the qt? He got really stressed when i moved him the first time. It sucks because i dont want to treat the tank but then again i feel bad moving him. I will do whatever is best for him, if i should move him i will. Any suggestions on what i should use? If i brought in a cleaner shrimp would that help? Would stress from moving from the qt have brought this out?
