Small White Bump on Perc's Lip

[deltaforcehall]

For about two weeks now, one of the two false perc's i own, has a small white bump on his lower lip...

any ideas what this is? it looks like a tiny.. wart? lol


He eats fine and seems healthy but i can not figure out what this is on his lip..

I do water changes once a week, and keep my levels in check..

my tank is clean and other fish are healthy w/ no signs of white bump on their lip... or anywhere else for that matter...

i dont see the clowns fighting either...

anyone had this happen to their percs or other fish?

thanks

its almost impossible to take a pic of it

Hmmm it may be a chimple from hitting the glass... My red bellied piranhas use to get those.

That actually seems to be very common amongst newly arrive clownfish, I have alot of clownfish that get that and it takes 2-3 months for it go to away on its own.

The fish otherwise is perfectly fine.

Could it be clownfish lymph?

always under the bottom lip on the chin or a bit downwards, can be pinkish, redish or no special color but a bump.

yes, looks like a wart
