'white spots' on rays

i purchased my motoro rays a few months back, and
growth has been quite stable..
but recently 1 of them has been developing white spots on its
original spots on the disc..., water conditions are normal..

i suspect its some kind of fungus....

they're being kept in 5x3x2 fgt, only a pair of motoros living in it...
both of them are still feeding on mp

will appreciate any help thanks!

try getting interpet's anti white spot ? or u can try adding yellow powder to see if the spots clear up, alternatively add a heater to bring up the water temperature to fasten the protozin's life-cycle.

i would try it out tmr... but isnt interpet's anti white spot more for fishes?

thanks for the advice!

i would suggest don put in any medication first as rays are v sensitive to medication. put a heater and dissolve some salt in water before adding into ya tank and see whether it gets better.

i suggest if can post a clear pic.. it helps alot..

since rays eating well, u might consider 30% water change and disolve some salt before adding into fgt water

thanks bro for all the advice! will update the progress... and if possible, with pictures too.

thankss (:

2 weeks ago:

white spots on rays. alittle white stuff on eye... thought it was negligible.

medicating them with primafix


1 week ago:
tried to take pics, but its in a black fgt.. too blur.
it got worse at first, with the top of both eyes 'rotting.. with white patches on them'. really heartwrenching
caused some bleeding into the eyes as well

there are also alot of stretch lines from both eyes towards the middle of the head... though the white spots on the disc are mostly gone.

medicating on both primafix and melafix, yellow powder
(note: all medication are half-dosed, as i understand rays are very sensitive)
30% wc every 2 days..

Now:
'rotting' of eyes lessened by like 50%. not bleeding as much.
they're still eating greedily..
but 1 ray have some spots missing leh. the orange part seem to like disappear. sigh.

getting some more rays soon, but will put them in holding tanks 1st until all other rays have recovered.



any advice from raymasters here? thanks for all the help so far...
hope my description's clear enough..

(edit* anyone knows the causes of such happenings? i was overseas when all this started. zz)
