It’s hard to tell in the photo but it looks fuzzy ish. No other fish has the spot and everyone has been eating. I don’t think it’s Ich, i’m...

    Lymphocystis on a sea urchin?

    So I've had lymphocystis in my tank now ever since I introduced this urchin (I saw the white stuff near his mouth when I took him out of the bag) and now my clowns have it.

    EMERGENCY White spot on head

    Anyone have any idea what just sprung up on my blue damsel? I know it could be fungus, ick or lymphocystis, but I’m asking for advice from experiences. He seems happy and is actively hunting I just noticed it a couple of hrs ago. Look familiar?

    Had him for about a week, was eating gin up until today, sort of found him lying on his side this AM, but then he moved & then all of a sudden came out and swam a bit, he did not seem to be as interested in eating all like he has been: There is a shallow gash (1/2 inch or so) on each side of...

No heavy breathing, eating healthy, maybe being harassed a little too much by...

    Possible lympho ID. Would like a second set of eyes.

    Is this lympho? If so do you adjust your QT procedure? So I received a juvenile emperor angelfish as well as a Flame angel from Divers den, went straight into 3% peroxide bath for 30min after temp acclimation float then on to a pre-dosed copper power QT at 1.0ppm. Slowly raised to 2.0 over...

    Neon Goby has Ick or Lymphocystis?

    Hello everyone, I have two neon gobies in my 75 gallon DT. It’s hard to tell if they have ick or lymphocystis. All my other fish are doing well and show no signs of ick. There hasn’t been a day where there are no white spots on the neon gobies, which is why I’m hesitant to diagnose it as ick...

    Ick or lymphocystis!?!

    I have a CCB fairly new, I purchased him for some aptaisa control. I noticed a white spot on his tail fin. I'm really hoping it's not ick! I have tangs and none of them have any white spot so that's what makes me believe this is possibly lymphocystis. I have a purple tang. Naso tang. Mimic tang...
