Posted	white spot
04-06-2006 19:58 by lisareynar	hi my fish have white spot (i think) , but is it normal for the fish to look like they have a fury layer on them also my angel fish has glazed eyes(a bit like what snake eyes look like when they are about to shed there skin) , we have been treating the tank with myxazin
04-06-2006 20:28 by nige	it sounds like velver rather than whitespot and the glazed eyes bit sounds like flukes
