Hi Tariq
The female is doing just fine. The male is brooding 12 of her little beauties as we speak!!! She cleared up and had a spawn just after. The ESHA did the trick just fine.
Cheers for asking mate.

ha ha...I think I'd need to have a few pints of lager myself to be drunk enough to part with one of wee fellas....Saying that I'm still drowning my sorrows after selling some!!!

I wish I had read this thread before all those meds were dumped in.
I would have said..."no..don't do it...leave her be."
I had a post quite awhile ago about a "lump on the head" of a very young Zebra of mine. Re-read it to see what happened. (The fish healed up just fine and looks perfect. The "lump" lasted about a month)
I see by your pics it was the same thing mine had, and I think it may just be a type of harmless wart or something.
Oh well, your fish is fine.
Note to anyone else out there that sees this on their fish.....don't freak out, step away from the tank and leave it alone. If it is the same thing that mine and Rob's had, the lump will go away by itself.
Kind of reminds me of a "ganglion cyst" on people. For anyone who's had one, it's a harmless lump that occurs rarely but goes away on it's own.
Cheers.

Hi Rob I'm glad your zebra is ok now...I was a little bit scared by the pictures but apparently not everything is what it seems to be

Hi Wandj
The picture is actually quite deceptive. The mark isn't actually a lump, but an indent, it went in about 0.5mm, ans pread from the size of 2mmx 2mm to about 5mm x 5mm.
The colouration changed progressively, and it seemed to spread. Whatever it was I have a feeling ti could hav been bacterial.
Thanks anyway, it's good to know what to look out for.
