Re: Icky fish nodule (?)

["Charter" <charter@charter-terminal.com>]

Oops - too late.  :)  Kathy fingered fish TB as the possible culprit.  Upon 
further research, I decided she was probably right.  I had tried a methylene 
blue bath and many many water changes, to no avail.  The adults continued to 
exhibit other mycobacter symptoms - slight bloating, difficulty swimming, 
and then there were those nodules. 

I euthanized them all last weekend, bleached the tanks, and decided to start 
fresh.  It's a little drastic, but I decided in this case, it was probably 
best to be done with it. 

Hopefully I'll have better luck with the next setup...
