    Yea being pale could be a number of things. In fish it could mean they're sleeping, the water is bad, ect.

    It was more than paleness ... I am a little paranoid since I keep other animals it can pass to.

    There is no way to know your ACF carried Chytrid. I have no idea if it is common in the pet trade for ACF to even carry Chytrid any longer since they never show signs of infection.

    If you are super paranoid I would just replace the media and clean the filter with bleach then be EXTREMELY thorough about cleaning away the bleach residue (use something like Prime to neutralize the bleach and rinse it out over and over and over and over..).
