LemonPeel Angel Help needed

[Chris777]

I have a new lemonPeel angelfish i got in my QT. Well he is showing signs of something but i'm unsure as to what. I tried to get a picture to post here problem is cause hes yellow my camara makes them look like a bloch of yellow in pictures for some reason. Anyways hopefully someone can help bases on the symptoms he is showing.


Well from what i have noticed so far is he has what looks to be white bumps but there bigger. It started yesterday with one on his side now he has a couple on his face. The blunt of them look more like growths. He has has been trying to scratch them off. Also his face where they are seems to be darker in color. He also might have one on the side of his mouth but its hard to tell as its just discolored white a bit there.


He also hasnt ate yet since ive had him. Today will be the 3rd day we have had him. He don't seem to be breathing heavy. Anything i may have left out feel free to ask.

No ideas?

I think before you try a cure, a sure diagnosis will be in order, but the priority here is that he needs to eat. Most of the time it's because his brain shut off his food drive in attempts to put all of it's energy to escape. Which is also why his immunity is suppressed. What are you offering? Most fish can't resist live foods so you should look into that. Brine is most accessible but not suitable in the long run. As far as a diagnosis, a google search should at least give you a start. And if you have digital editing capabilities. a black and white pic should give you a better picture to look at. Hope this helps.

I have tried brine he won't even touch that either. I did a google search but couldnt really find any sites that give pictures or atleast decent pictures to look at. I just tried taking a picture in black and white but it dont show up in the pictures.

Here is the best picture i could get. He comes up front for me but won't stay still His other side by his face above his eye is the spot thats worse but this will hopefully give you some short of idea.... The spot most visiable in the picture is the spot a bit to the right of his gill.
