So... some of my Boraras brigittae's bodies have numerous white spots on them, and have for a couple days. The spots do not seem to be raised, as if they were ich, nor are the fish flashing.
In fact, the fish are all very active and hungry.

However, I have lost two in the past few days. Two of the fish have simply disappeared, no bodies. The tank is closed up very tightly, so I don't think they jumped.

Any ideas/help?

Any chance you could get a pic to get a better idea?

I don't necessarily think ich has to be raised spots, and they don't always flash when they are infected, so it still could be that.

Velvet looks similar to ich i believe, look into it.

From posting here, other places, talking to people, the consensus is that it is a parasite of some sort.

So, I'm going to catch the fish and medicate them in a separate tank.

I am so not looking forward to this
