Sorry to hear about the losses and the infection, from your
description it sounds like it could be one of the new strains of
whitespot, which according to the boffins etc is quite hard to sort
out, think there was an artical in Practical Fishkeeper about it.
Have to say the best person for answers is Steve,
Hope all goes well with the treatment especially for the pleco
(just love those fish)
