Clown Loach white spot?

spamvicious · 10-16-2007, 12:27 PM

We have two clown loach, they have always had a silkly look to them but now one is much much paler than then the other. My mum is worried that it might be whitespot but I'm sure I read somewhere that some loaches are just paler than the others??

Put them in a QT and observe symptoms if you are worried. This, of course, could stress them more. If they are active and eating then I wouldn't worry about them till they show signs.

I agree, it is probably just its a different colour or stressed...this will probably not affect the fish.
