Sick discus
I have 2 discus in QT right now. They have a patchy white spot that seems to be slightly peeling. I will attach pics. Parameters on the main tank, 75 gal planted. Ammonia 0ppm, nitrites 0ppm, nitrates 5ppm. One fish has the spot peeling and the other doesn't. Their color is good, they won't eat, they favor the fin near the spot and swim slightly leaning towards that side. But not all the time. I added some aquarium salt to the QT tank for now. Any ideas?

Not sure where the soar came from. I would put some pima fix in their just in case and watch to see if it's healing on it's own or if it's getting worse.
