Clownfish lymph?

[Tom735]

Hi, picked up a pair of snowflake clownfish over the weekend and one of them had a little white spot under its chin, watched it eating no problems and was told the spot will clear by itself shortly
Just looking for other options if this is true?
Thanks!

Really hard to see in the pic. Something a bit closer will help to visually assess the issue.

Really hard to get a decent close up

It's rare to see Clowns with Lympho. This looks more like a minor injury, and I would not be concerned. I assume they are eating. They look fine to me.

Seems to be eating fine, hopefully disappears soon

What are you feeding the fish?

Frozen mysis + mini bloodworms, put tiny amount of flake food too

Good food. Look at spectrum for the dry flake food. Good stuff. As long as the fish has good food it should be fine and go away. Even if it’s lymphocystis.

I'm also guessing that it's an injury, possibly from fighting with the other clownfish to determine hierarchy (it's fairly common). As long as it doesn't get worse (larger, changes color, etc.) it's probably not a concern.
