I will never think my expensive camera a waste of money again.
A month ago I got some baby bns from an online lfs. They were less than inch long and very hard to see.
Thanks to my camera and computer software I was able to detect this ich or whatever it was on this bn only a few days after getting the fish.
I dosed the qt tank with 1/2 strength Waterlife's Protozin for a couple of weeks and nipped the spots in the bud. The little bn's, including the one in the photo seem fine now.

I still see white dots on the skin.
He is ill.
Don't let him die!

This does not look like Ich to me.....Most probably it is Oodinium but first of all please post some more pics in order to be sure....

The dots seemed to be yellowish (correct me on this as you see it in person) for being ich...

Here you can see some pics of both.....

Oodinium forms a fine dust like covering. This is not Velvet but the treatments for it are all the same.
I suspect this is Chilodonella.

That was the photo that first tipped off the fact that it was diseased. The fish was subsequently treated. The owner was not saying that was a picture following treatment.

Whatever it was it is well and truly gone now anyway.
I did sent an email to the lfs to make sure they check their bn tanks so no one else gets infected.

awesome camara!

I am glad he is o.k. now.
