What is on my trigger?

[mikester311]

Ok, well a few posts back I posted a problem with something on this fish's eye. It's seemed to go away for now but now the fish has these white splotches on it's body where it looks like it's skin is peeling. It's also itching against the tank a lot. My water parameters are all 0 except the nitrate is at 5. None of the other fish in the tank seem to be affected yet. Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!

in my book it looks to be a fungus disease.I'm just saying this so maybe you can do a search on it on msn until beth gets here if you dont find anything.
Hope This Helps,

Did you follow the treatment recommendations posted by Terry in the ohter thread?

I don't have a hospital tank set up yet, but I'm working on it. I thought those meds were for some sort of parasite? Can I sill use them for this problem?

The blotches look like raised areas, parasites? Have you located the meds? I would using them, in addition to hyposalinity.
