Arowana with bubble on the back.

[Hellarts]

Any bro know what is this?
After water change the arowana back have alot of mini mini bubbles on it.
Is it normal, do I need to do anything??

Immediately after WC is normal lah.
because of the splashing of fresh water into the tank creating tiny air bubbles.
all my fishes (discus, ranchu, aro etc) have this during and lasted awhile after WC.

bro, how is your aro now?

my 6 years old Malaysian gold does have such tiny bubbles attached to some of its scales at times after wc.

however, it clears after a short while.

It now looks normal but they is look like white stuff on the back after the bubbles gone, doesn't look likes white spot, when I'm home ardy I will take a look again

this normally happens to me when i transfer my aro to another tank , the bubbles then the white stuff like the scales abit slime coat loss then will look abit burnt because i some times dont acclimatize but minor thing only imo. , i normally add abit of salt and after 1 day its back to normal try to dissolve salt b4 u put in

if its just bubbles then nothing to worry its normal just continue to maintain good water all will be ok

btw just remembered u keep rays i would suggest not too add salt as incase u over dose or never dissolve properly , rays some times cannot really tahan too much salt.
