Help furry looking pimples on yellow head jawfish

[Lorna g]

I have 3 jawfish 2 are fine but the smaller one has what appears to be lumps which look almost furry!! She is eating like a pig but flashes on the sand sometimes and the lumps don't drop off like ick so they don't dissapear! Can someone help me as not sure what this is!?

Could be flukes, fresh water bath or prazi pro will get them off if so.

Do flukes move?? Would they affect a healthy fish and how do I go about getting her out without tearing apart the display? Xx

Flukes can appear in many different forms. What is the total stock list, you maybe able to dose prazi in the tank depending on what inverts are present.

If flukes you need to treat all fish anyway. Shouldn't be that time sensitive, you can use a trap it can take a week or so to get all your fish though. Bigger the better for a trap imo. I use magnets to secure then where I want it.
