Thanks so much for the reply. I contacted another fish store in my area
and they knew exactly what I needed. They ordered the medicine and I
picked it up today. Rather expensive, and the treatment is a chore
and will take around two weeks. I ask them what was the cause of this
disease,Poor water quality they said. I must admit,I've been so busy I
have been neglecting my tanks. :(
Btw, the name of the medicine is "Hole in the Head Guard"...(g)
