My lovely male cac. has developed a little white bump on the top of his head, dead center. He is a little withdrawn and cannot be induced to spawn with his flirting female (they have 3-week-old fry in the tank right now), but is still swimming around and eating and otherwise looking gorgeous. It's not Ich., not fuzzy, kind of pimply but I can't determine what it is so I'd like to do a salt-dip with him before trying more intense options. Don't have a full-blown quarantine set-up available at the moment, but I have a 1 gal that I would do a dip in. What I'd like to know is whether or not these guys are unusually sensitive to salt, and whether epsom salt or fw aquarium salt would be a better bet.
I have done salt dips with bettas, so this is not new to me, just haven't done it with apistos before.
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
