New Powder Brown with white growth

[jcolley]

I have a new (to me) Powder Brown tang that belonged to the manager of a local chain store. It was probably healthy for the two years prior to being introduced to their system, but has something now.

I'm on the 3rd cycle of tank transfer, 4th starts in the morning before 10AM.

I've dosed the current tank with PraziPro thinking this might be flukes, but not so sure.

Any ideas/recommendations for diagnosis and treatment?

Gorgeous fish. Moved quickly in the video but I only see one growth and it appears to be lymphocystis. Add selcon and/or vita-chem to its food.

+1 on lymphocystis. Agree with Steve that the fish is a beauty! Hope everything goes well with QT.

+2 and keep supurb water quality. It could take several weeks or more for it to go away.

Thanks for the input. So no known treatment besides normal good husbandry, eh?

When the next transfer is done, I'll throw a skimmer in there with a baffle then and feed more.

My entire DT is broken down and other fish in a 55 until it's up and cycled. What is the risk/mode of transmission?
