You told me, a while ago, that you didn't explored much the saltwater fish diseases, but I do believe that your advanced knowledge in freshwater fish diseases could help -at least with an opinion, if not a diagnostic- understand better what's going on. In short; I have in my care, for about one year, two Nautilus pompilius. They were doing just fine; they grew several inches in this past year and they were eating well enough until approximately a month ago. At the beginning, when I got them, I fed them a varied diet: prawns, shrimp, squid, fish, and some manufactured frozen marine food. They did not like the squid, but they showed a greedy interest for the "Formula one" brand -5, 6, 7, or even 8 cubes at a time- and this is what they've got until now, for the last 8 months or so. Now, besides not showing interest in food, on one of them, a patch of fungus started to grow on the top mantle. I don't know what it can be, what could have caused it, and what will be the proper treatment. Would you be able, this coming week, to come and take a look at it? I would really appreciate your help in this matter. Thank you.
