White growth on false perc gill

[Dholmblad]

Picked up two false perc clown fish from a lfs around the corner. I thought I watched them closly before buying, however I noticed something when I got home. One of them has a white growth on their gill, small patch of what looks like cottage cheese. Ill probably be taking them out of qt and back to lfs in a bit, just wondering what it may be

I brought it back. Guy at lfs said it was some type of virus that angels were prone to

For future reference, you might want to look up lymphocysts and see if that's what the fish had. They're harmless and usually go away with a little TLC and good water quality.
