Balloon Mollie has white gunk on left fin and top of head and upper back. What is it? Hopefully you can see the picture.

Cheops welcome to the reef. I discovered this forum as it seemed to always come up when I googled a question. Finally joined, then chose to become a supporting member and later a partner member to keep the forum available for others to come. My wife @Ocean_Queenie and I started culturing copepods and phytoplankton eventually selling some on here as a hobbyist. Eventually we decided to try to make a career out of it so we are now sponsors as well. I love the Reef2 Reef community here and the wealth of knowledge. Thanks for joining us.
 
Welcome, glad you are here! You will probably get a quicker response if you post this in the fish disease forum.
