Hello

I have three Cory catfish in my 35gal tank. I keep getting a white growth on there fins near their body. It has not spread to the other fish in the tank. I have treated with API Pimafix Treats Fungal infection as it instructs to do. I do about 50% change after and it goes away for a few days then comes back. I am on well water and typically sits around 6ph from the tap. It has a sand bottom and some Java fern and a unknown plant that keep living. I use mechanical filtration and a light aeration till recently.

Any help would be appreciated.

Update

I been treating the tank with PIMAFIX and it is clearing up the mark. The other two are doing well to the baby and other adult no signs of marks on them. A few more days of treatment and will do a good water change. :)

Still would be nice to know what caused it or what I was. :)
