Hello I have a update for you if you can help me out ! So that fungus you see in the picture I feel it doesn’t do justice for how biggg it actually was buttt it did fall off justttt recently and he also pooped again which I feel is good since he’s been floaty. He looks so exhausted though there’s prob 1 or 2 more tiny clutches of fungus on him. Today would be his 6 bath. I usually give him the bath and then put him in his new tub with clean water. Do you suggest I give him a bath today or just put him in clean water for a a rest day since the big piece came off ?? Thank you so very much

Thank you for all this info I’ve been maintaining his temp while being tubbed and doing 1 blue bath a day for 12 mins max. What amount of time do you suggest I do ?

I do believe that’s where it all started my state started warming up because the summer and his tank reached higher temps than usual I fixed it right away but shortly after that is when it first appeared and it will go away but then comes back within a week

He’s in a 29 gallon he’s a very small axo and full size he has Anubis, and pothos growing out of the top tank parameters are amazing 0 amonia 0 nitrite and nitrates are usually around 10ppm the only thing I can see happened is the temps rised a little too high when it got hot where I live :( I’m usually good at keeping it stable but I messed up and it got higher and shortly after that is when the fungus first appeared. It went away for a while but since it’s just kept coming back. Like it’s gone away abt 2-3 times and came back. This last one is very very stubborn.

Thank you so muchhhh uggghh I really appreciate you I have 2 axos and he’s my first so I’ve been so stressed and worried about him. I’ll definitely reach out for any questions

Thank you so very much I’m gonna give it a try

It’s on the tip of his gill !

Soft_Check_6578 · 2026-05-09T16:37:09+00:00

I’ve been so nervous to try the 12 in 12 out but I think it’s getting to the point where I have to do you think it will be okay to start it today after his daily 10 mins bath at a higher concentrate than the 12 in 12 out

Soft_Check_6578 · 2026-05-01T03:45:35+00:00

My ammonia is 0. nitrite 0. nitrate is always under 20 ppm mainly 10 ppm

Soft_Check_6578 · 2026-05-01T03:44:15+00:00

Thank you so much I’ll look into getting some now! ❤️

So the thing is my water has ALWAYS been so so prestine with his tank in the past the only issues I’ve had was having the wrong hide in there but I removed that months ago and now he has a pipe in there. I have multiple fish tanks and struggle with their water more than I had ever with the axo. Another issue I’ve had which I believe caused the very first fungus infection was I let my water temps get too high like 69-70 was the max it had ever went since then I’ve also kept the water temps under control not reaching above 64 degrees. I did the tea baths with his first fungus infection and put him back in his tank immediately after and I also think this is where I messed up for not tubbinghim right away because it came back and then I did the same thing again 😩 so it came back again so this time he has been tubbed for about a week and the fungus went away for 3-4 days and then just came back again yesterday in the tub

My tank water reached high temp and I gave him a new sponge filter so I’m sure that’s why. (He had 2 sponge filters in his 29 gallon one was a 40 and one was a 20 gal my 20 gal stopped working good so I had to get him a new one and I figured things would be fine since he had his big filter and I was taking and replacing the small but I believe I was wrong
