understand is the water, stable them with more salt, and maybe due to stress. keep your ph 6.8 to 7.5 max.

Now I believe that the black spot is due to either stress or water condition...I tried separate my 3 BP with black spot into another smaller tank...while just daily adding in some salt..they basically are not disturd at all and after a week...the balck spot is gone..while my other rest of BP which in a bigger tank, some had start to have black spot after my kids keep disturbing them
