What sickness was this?


I wish I had my camara to freak some of you out, but it bit the dust again and I couldn't bring it back to life. ANYHOW,

So I had this yellow damsel that was hidding for the longest time in the rocks. I never saw him, day or night. So I hunted his butt down and found him, could only see him from the top, but I could tell he was alive. Came back the next day (yesterday) and my girlfriend saw me looking and asked.."blah blah blah.....blah blah blah" And I said "sure you can look in there, see the guy hidding" (JK, I'm not that sick of my girlfriend..............yet...)

So back to the story, so she talked me into making him come out of there, so I kinda poked next to him and he swam around in this little rock, and finaly I got him to come all the way out of the rock........

BOY I WISH I HAD A CAMARA!!!!!!!

The most freaky, scary movie, nasty, etc.. face of a fish came out to say hello.

His face, like lips mouth everything infront was rotted away, maybe eaten away, but it was a brownish looking color, and all he had was a hole and some flaps of flesh left that would have made me scream (if my g/f wasn't there I might have)

Anyhow I flushed him, he was not healty at all, didn't even try to get away as I cought him.



SO I just wanted to ask....what the hell is it? There was no other signs other than this. Was this just a bad case of cotten chops?

THe only thing else I have in the tank is 2 other damsels..(another yellow, and a blue)

It soulds like the fish version of Leprosy. I Don't know if there is such a thing though. "I'm not an Ichthyologist, but I play one on TV."
