I noticed some weird black spots near my Oscar’s gills. They are on both sides. Also earlier in the day I saw only one gill plate moving. They are both moving now. Does my Oscar have gill flukes or something else?
I'm sorry, diseases are not something I'm super familiar with. I wish you the best of luck, and the advice I have is to google the symptoms, and read, read, read everything.
Thanks for the link. The gill plate that wasn't moving earlier is moving but the one that was moving earlier isn't. This is weird. He is swimming and eating.
You found the OFL forums before I had a chance to jump on and link them to you. Miss Nicki definitely knows Oscars pretty good, and most other cichlids as well. Definitely a good source of information there!
I've been a member for awhile on oscarfishlover but come on here much more often so that''s why I posted on here first. It looks like oscars are often using one gill more then the other.
