Hi - My husband has had an AS for about 3 years, and he's develpoed some kind of fungal/bacterial infection. It looks like his skin is sloughing off, and it's turning an ugly pink/tender look around his neck. We have been doing soaks in aquarium salt, and we bought some aquarium meds at Petco today (Fungal Aid?). He is in a 55 - very well filtered - and he's still eating / acting fine.

Thanks for any help in advance!
