hi guys
Today i noticed that my shubunkin has red bloody dots on her body, mostly at
the base of her fins. I did a 40% water change, cleaned out the filter media
and added 0.03% salt to the tank. She is 4 years old and this is her first
ever problem. Last night the filter malfunctioned and she swam past it a few
times, Could she have been burnt while touching the heater? I threw the
stupid heater away and ordered a better one.
Is this a reaction to burning on the heater or is it a reaction to
parasites?
Have i done the right thing so far? Is here anything else i can do to help
her. She dart around occasionally, but that is usually her....
Hope someone can help
TIA
