I noticed some white spots on my black moor on monday. There doesn't seem to be anymore appearing and she is happy and swimming about a lot. If it is what do i do to treat it. Here's some pictures

Theyre on the gills body and underneath the tail fin. The ones on the gills are more promenant than the others

Aww so my girl might actually be a boy . He's small compared to my fantail, she's big. Ill keep an eye on it anyway. Thanks

Those were the best pictured i could get. He wasnt feeling photogenic :-). We do a water change every week, we'll check the water when we cangee them tomorrow

Could be scale damage....does it look to you like grains of Salt? Is he rubbing himself against the tank sides or decorations?

That's strange... does it look like it could be the slime coat peeling off?

Okay I've hunted about on google and found this;



That quote I found here (Link is not visible to guests. Please register to view.)
It also mentioned the possibility of Black Moor goldfish changing colour.

I also read on the above link... Someone was saying their Moor had white spots, which became lines and then dissappeared.

Not sure how helpful any of it is, but it's all google came up with. If the fish is acting normal and eating, then maybe just keep an eye on it? If it's an illness, you'll know soon enough.

(Hopefully the links are working, when ever I post, they seem to disappear to me >.<)

The lines look to be disappearing. Bubbles behaviour hasn't changed and is still feeding well. Ill keep my eye on it and see what happens. I was panicking that it could of been Ich. Ill see if i have time next week to get some salt. Thanks for your help everyone, ill keep posted if theres any updates
