while feeding my discus today I noticed a couple of them had what looked like a tiny white spot on them. they still feed well but I was a little concerned. the only thing i've done for now is raise the temp from 28 to 30. This tank gets a 30 - 40% WC every 3 days so there's never been a water quality issue. there has been no introduction of new fish to this tank in the last 2 months. and this tank has its own gravel vac and buckets so there's been no chance of anything coming from other tanks.

posting a pic, not the best shot but maybe it should give some idea about my concern.

I'd keep an eye on it but IME with good water quality this kind of thing clears up pretty darn quickly smile.gif

Just so long as it's not spreading or getting inflamed etc.
