Neons

FishCrazy1234 · 07-13-2005, 06:57 PM

Some of my Neons have bumps on their bellies . I was wondering if this is a disease of some sort.

Any Help would be apprciated
Thanks

could you describe these "bumps" more in detail? what color are they? are they protruding?

im guessing they same color of scales they look like to compare are they like warts on someone or like somthign else.

You're right ALFA WOLF they r the same color as the scales . Well only some of my neons have bumps on their bellies. The bumps on their stomachs are protuding.
Does anyone have an idea of what this could be???

I used to have two powder blue gouramis until one of them got a huge bump, the same color of their scales, on their side. It died a few days later and now I have one left. I think it may have been something like a tumor.

It's called neon tetra disease and it is nasty. Unfortunatley, there is not a cutre or treatment out there. Seperate them now; if they don't get beter, it may be best to...*gulp*...cull them.

Are their colors getting pale? Cysts are a sign of NTD, but may not always be that.

Could it be swim bladder though?
