Recurring non-lethal blister bursting problem - pictures
I made this post back in October:

These blisters grow, burst, then heal. I finally managed to get some pictures of one of these wounds. It always appears in the same area. The fish flashes, looks slightly skinny compared to other Kubotais of similar age, but otherwise seems healthy. The whole tank was just dosed with Levamisole, and now Jungle Fungus Eliminator. Has anyone ever seen this before?

I'm not sure what could cause it. It could just be something that isn't healing properly. Have you tried quarantining it yet? It would need to be in a q-tank that has no rocks or substrate that it can rub against. Just give it a small cave and give it about 4-6 weeks to heal.
A treatment of Melafix might help heal the wound. A treatment of Prazipro afterwords might help eliminate any internal parasites also. Levamisole only treats for round worms. Prazi treats the flatworms.

It definitely heals up, and that's what is so frustrating. My quarantine tank is filled with new fish right now, but I agree that he should be treated separately, if possible. However, do you normally recommend "cleaning out" fish with both Levamisole AND Prazipro? I really didn't have a reason to treat with Levamisole, other than as a precaution. It sounded harmless, but my fish hated it, and still haven't gotten back to normal. Would there be any problem if I treated the whole tank with Prazi?
What you see in the pictures is the wound after a pimple burst. Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures of it. I was lucky to get these pictures. He's been hiding for quite some time, and I thought he died, just like a couple of months ago, but he reappeared this evening. I wish I knew what it was. I've never had any luck with fish medications.
