this is worth ..all of themIf the spots are raised a bit, cottony, fibrous, or cauliflower like in texture, it's probably lymphocystis. Very common while treating with copper. It's a usually harmless virus similar to the human herpes. Feeding a mix of food + Beta Glucan can help the fish's immune system to suppress the virus that will be with the fish for the rest of its life.

Yes.Did you ever treat for flukes? Sorry I am late to the party— I’ve been helping a friend move and doing some home project work at my home.
Are the spots still there?
Actually now I look in the bucket and he is swimming ok again.Did you ever treat for flukes? Sorry I am late to the party— I’ve been helping a friend move and doing some home project work at my home.

Day 11 Update
My little guy is swimming fine today. Tried to feed beta glucan gut loaded Blackworms A few times and he didn’t eat. He looks interested, especially when the are squirming, but no luck. I even added a drop of garlic to a couple.
Last night I added some beta glucan to the water, but it clouded up the water so bad that I needed to use a powerhead and small micron filter sock to clear water up. I guess the one I have on hand must have too much filler in other ingredients (rice powder, vegetable magnesium stearate, silica).
I am starting a dose of general cure because maybe it’s an intestinal thing as well as lympho... He had kinda stringy poop the night before the skin issue and lack of appetite. I’m at a loss, but at least I know he ate like a pig for days prior to this.
I have another 5 gallon bucket of fresh saltwater mixed up in case the General Cure medication was the wrong thing to do.
I also have a 10 gallon nano that I could move him to, but am afraid to contaminate the live rock and coral in there with something, because I was planning on putting it into my 60 cube in a week or so.
Any guidance, suggestions, recommendations are more than welcome!
