hello all!i have a female anthias that I put into my main display yesterday. While netting her out of qt she looked fine with no spots on her. When I got her in the tank I noticed two white “things” attached to her fins. Is this possibly just debris that got stuc to her during netting or maybe her fins got damaged? She went through 1 week of copper at 0.5 ppm, a round of prazipro, and metroplex, kanaplex, and focus for two weeks in food. If it’s cotton, shouldn’t kanaplex have taken care of that. It says for fin rot and bacterial infections. Please help!

I’m referring to the tiny white dot on her tail

The photo is a bit blurry but it looks to be Lymph. It is viral and tends to dissipate with good diet and water quality. Maybe post some more pictures. I also posted this thread below for you to check out.

Thank you very much. I’m very sure that’s what it is. Looks just like it. I can try to get a better pic, but this things moves a lot. Lol
