Dogface with lympho

[jcmjoe]

I recently aquired a dogface puffer , I had the fish in my quarantine tank and noticed some signs of ich( white spots and scratching) he eats like a pig and already begs for food, I am treating him with hypo and been going fine for over a week now on the treatment. My water conditions as far as Ammonia and nitrates and ph, temp etc... are all very stable and no toxic levels. I noticed a bit of lympho on his tail that has started to get larger. I am positive it is lympho since it has the kinda cauliflower look. Should this be a concern since I know lympho is a viral and normally goes away,also should I be doing anything else? I add selcon to his food and will keep up on the water changes. Thanks

Also any tips or experiance with a dogface would be greatly appreciated. He is currently 2.5 inches long and in a 46 gallon tank. Before anyone gets excited I have a 150 Gallon fowlr tank that he will be residing in (Tank is in process of being setup with parts being Gathered!haha). I feed him Mysids shrimp, squid, he actually eats nori, and I give him a cherrystone clam once a week to gnaw on for his teeth. Thanks for all the help guys,,,Joe
