First off let me start by saying he has been in hypo for 3.5 weeks actually my whole system has been .....dont worry it is a FOWLR about 1500 lbs live rock, 400 lbs sand and around 700 total gal to be exact.....I lost about 7 fish due to some sort of an infestation that came with either some cheto or lepoards that were added......at first it looked like ick so I treated the setup with hypo....about 2 weeks into the hypo everyone was looking fine not signs of any ick or other symptoms other than the purple and yellow tangs skin coloring not looking so hot because of the hypo....then all of a sudden lost a 1 very large queen, 1 purple tang, 1 radiant wrasse, 1 wantabi, 1 genacanthus simifaciatis, and 1 yellow tang.....now 2 days after all the deaths 90% of everyone else is eating well looking better swimming everywhere and this is on the side of the Bandit (he is eating like a champ everthing that goes in as always, even cleaning other fish, swimming fine, responsive to eating out of my hand as always, just normal except for the bumps that look like scales raised up in some areas and then a few like cotton like bumps about 1/16 inch seems to big for ick)

water is at 1.008 about 700 total gal

He has been in hypo before and it was fine for him.....he is about 3 yr old....maybe he isnt digging the hypo this time, oh and forgot to add they all had 5 days of parazipro before hypo started....
 
No one ......dang someone puts 4 tangs in a 90 and we get a hundred responses before the thread is up 5 min.....anyone on this ??????
 
Lympho usually starts on a fin, spine or tail. A bacterial/fungal infection is possible. Can you post more pics?
 
More pics would help ..
He mentioned cotton like appearance and thats why i thought maybe lympho ..
