Hello everyone,
I have a 30gal community tank with a (very territorial) pearl gourami in it.
I noticed that she has not been feeling well for a few days. She stopped eating, she looks bloated and isn't interrested in any food. I tried peas, dried daphnea and even bloodworm as it his her favorite.
My main concern is some white fluff I noticed near her anus/little arms (sorry I do not know the name of these kind of whiskers) area. I believe she is sick but I do not know if it's bacterial, fungal or even a parasite. She has a missing scale on her left side and is taking a breath of air every few seconds. Has anyone seen this white fluff before? Please look at the pictures and let me know.
I introduced new cardinal tetra last week and all my other fish looks fine.
I'm worried, I hope she's not in pain.
