What type of gases do fish exchange while breathing?
Fish pull water in through their gills and filter it in the gill rakers. Then the water is forced through the gill filaments. These project out into the flow of the water, allowing the water to cross the lamellae. This results in what is called the "gas exchange". This is when oxygen is exchanged for carbon dioxide. The oxygen enters the blood stream directly when it moves over the capillary membrane. The carbon dioxide leaves the body with the flow of water out the operculum.

What is the scientific name for Turquoise Discus?
Although some years ago there were thought to be several types (species) of discus and all were given different 'taxonomic' names, DNA research has now proven that there are only two types (species) of discus. These two species are Symphysodon discus and Symphysodon aequefasciata. The former is known as the "Heckel" and is quite hard to keep and breed and the latter (S. aequefasciata) is the one that the commercial breeders (mainly in Tropical Asia) have had a lot of fun with and produced all the fancy colours like the one you refered to as the "Turquoise Discus". Genetically a "Turquoise Discus" is the same as a "Pidgeon Blood" is the same as a "Marlboro Red". They are all S.aequefasciata.
What do you do if your feeder fish has bumps on its scales?
If you are using the feeder fish to feed other fish with then I would toss them right away. If you plan on keeping them a while then I would treat your tank with fungus treatment or parasite treatment. More then likely they have one or the other. I would not let any of your more expensive fish eat them and take the risk of losing your bigger fish over a 10c fish. I got some feeders today and when I got home I noticed they all had bumps either on them or inside them and the feeders are for my big oscar and flowerhorn fish and i took the fish back because i wasn't about to risk losing my other fish. Good Luck
