pH 6.6
Ammonia 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 10-20 (but has been at about 60 last week)
This kind of looks like a scrape to me, but I wanted to check that it wasn't something a little more sinister like HITH?

Does it look indented or scuffed?

That’s a scrape for me. Not paying attention to the road ahead.

Just scuffed.
I think so as well. Just wanted a second opinion. I'll keep an eye out over the coming days.black ghost wrote: ↑Sun Jan 01, 2023 18:47 pm That’s a scrape for me. Not paying attention to the road ahead.

If it was HITH it would’ve started from nowt as a little round hole and you’d have noticed it a while ago, methinks.

Yup, scuff certainly seems more likely than HITH I found keyholes to be easily spooked.black ghost wrote: ↑Sun Jan 01, 2023 19:56 pm If it was HITH it would’ve started from nowt as a little round hole and you’d have noticed it a while ago, methinks.

This seems to have turned into white spot or something similar. A lesson in why you should quarantine new fish. You can see a couple of slots on its head in the photo above.

All of my Keyholes are affected by it. Before I get a white spot treatment, is it definitely white spot?

Are all the spots identical… round and the same size? Doesn’t look it to me.
