Hi
One of my Trout has a,’ whitish tail’ Feeding and swimming normally.
Different to the spots of ICH. More an anaemic appearance (bleaching) of the tail area. Other fish seem fine. Could it be trauma? Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi
My best guess at the moment is , ‘white tail disease’
See this this link;http://www.thefishsite.com/diseaseinfo/22/white-tail-disease
ICU is on standby and will accept transfers in the morning.
I am going to salt to 3PPT. I am also going to heat tank to 16*C
15*C is SET for trout but my thermostat only goes down to 16*C
Any thoughts?

Some time ago I posted about a fish with a white tail.
Today sadly I removed another fish with identical symptoms.
This time however there were visible trauma marks. Bite marks.
I am convinced that he was attacked by the other fish.
On the first occurrence the victim was number four in the tank. About 50 to 60% in size of the king of the tank..
I ate the king.
This left two again a size differential of about 50%. Possibly with more fish aggression would be spread. With low numbers and marked size differential I now realise i was heading for trouble. Lesson learnt.
