Need help: Lumps on aro face
Dear sifus,
Just saw this appearing on my aro's face 3,4 days ago and seems to be increasing in size. At first was just the lump on the lower right check. And now 3 more lumps on the right forehead I was reading around, is this the gas bubble disease? I can't post the link though I have uploaded the pic onto photobucket. I havent been active for a long time and lost the password to my old account. So how can I post pictures? |

Most probably is due to poor water quality.
Add Jap yellow power. Change the filter wool and Increase the WC frequency will help. |

Imho, do more frequent wc, probably every 2 days 20% to 30% wc, add heater , set to 32 degree and add epsom salt. Hoped your aro will recover soon
