Ntd?

#1
I just discovered yesterday that one of my four tetras wasn't schooling with the others anymore. He was always hiding behind the castle. This morning I noticed that he had a black/red spot on his belly with some white fungus hanging off it in the middle. I took him out.

I read up on NTD and I'm assuming that's what it is. I hope I can get a picture but it's kinda hard.

It's a redish/blackish spot on his right side next to his fin on his belly. And it has some fungus hanging off it too.

I don't really have a QT unless I remove the fry from the fry tank, so he's in the mini habitat for now.

What should I do? He's obviously not very happy where he is now, but he won't last much longer and there's no cure...so...:(

Do you have an airstone you could put in with him? That will help keep the water moving. But if he's truely a goner then it might be better to euthinize (I'm such a wuss, I can never make myself do it unless they're really suffering bad).
