Sick Yellow Tang

[kita_katan]

So I have noticed some white cotton looking spots on my yellow tangs fins and I am leaning toward it being Lymphocystis :facepalm:

I have been doing some research and I have started soaking their food with Vita-Chem and Selcon. Is that all I can do for him? He is still eating like a pig still, swimming and seems perfectly normal except on his fins.

PH 7.8
Ammonia 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate ~10-15 ppm
Salinity 1.0255

I have done a water change to try to bring the Nitrates down and I will be doing another one tonight.

Any suggestions would be great.

Had it before on an idol. I did nothing and it went away on its own. Soaking the food can't hurt. I would refrain from any drastic measures as it will just stress the fish out more and limit it's ability to fight this off on its own.

Looks to be a case of lymphocystis. No real treatment other than good food and pristine water. Very rarely will it kill a fish but can lead to stress which allows other diseases to pop up.
