Hi all! My Apistogramma panduro male seems to be breathing heavily and has some sort of wound.
This is the wound, under the mouth, close to the gills. The other side is perfectly fine.
It looks like several bubbles, and for a second I thought a snail might have laid eggs, but that doesn't really make sense.
Here is a video of the heavy breathing. Sorry for the mess, but since it's not a display tank, I wanted as much microfauna as possible in case they bred.
Water parameters:
Temp. 24ºC
pH: 6,0
Kh: 3
Gh: 4
NO2: O
NO3: 5
Does anybody know what this could be? I'm thinking parasites, but all other fish seem perfectly fine. He's eating well though.
