    Yes, that's what the fish store said as well. Finally, I got a good picture of Zander. We just named him, maybe that will help, LOL.

    But, really, it doesn't look like Ich to me, it looks like something else strange. The fish store said not to worry about it if there is no visable texture to it, and he is still eating. He is eating a lot still.

    Can someone tell me if he looks sick or not?

    I did start to improve the water by throwing away the Skilter 250, and I got the Marineland Penguin Bio Wheel filter. Seems to be working better.

    Anyway, here is the picture of him.
