Poor little Angel

[hkarmy25]

So there's something wrong with my angel. It's still eating just fine and friendly as ever, but has two white dots on its back and left fin. They're thick, so I know its not ich, atleast not like I've ever seen before. I thought it might just be pods so I did a FW dip with no success. Any ideas?







I wish you could just tell fish to sit still :headwally: But those were the best out of five pics I took. You can see the one on its back in the first picture and the second you can see on its fin.

hard to tell from the pictures. Do they look like cotton balls, i.e. fluffy and irregular texture?
may be Lymphocytes. Google it for description and pictures. But if it's lympho, not much you can do but keep the water clean and feed it healthy food. Most of time it will go away on its own.

That might be it. Atleast thats what the one on his back looks like. I'm gunna go ahead and throw him in QT and..... I guess just observe and go from there. I hate FW dipping fish, so hopefully i wont have to do it again. But he handled it like a champ and was eating not 5 mins later.

If it is lympho just let him be, it will cure in time.

I'm sorry your fish is sick, but it is an amazing looking animal

Looks like lympho, feed a vitamin rich diet and it'll cure it self.

I'm guessing you all were right. I came home from my interview today and its almost all gone. Just a small little mark from where it was on his back. Thanks guys!
