My cbb has lympho, and online they suggest to cut that part, as its uncurable..What exactly are you trying to accomplish?
Thank you.. will do that.. its eaten all the aiptasias though, tomorrow im getting clam for it. Also trying to feed it masstickCBB's are particularly susceptible to lympho and both of the ones we've had had it from the LFS. Just do what @Smo did, essentially think of lympho as a cold; good nutrition and good water conditions will help. It may take a few months but if they eat well and your water quality is good then they will recover just fine. In my opinion, you are opening a whole new bucket of potential issues with cutting the part off the fish.

I have reefplus. Which black and white worms??I have had worms (Black and White) clear up lympho’s in butterfly fish rather speedy. But I agree with the above, live and fresh foods mixed with vitiman enriched meaty frozen foods keeps them at bay and out of sight.

Here's a great source and the price is right for white worms: https://madriverseeds.ecrater.com/c/1780299/other-itemsI have reefplus. Which black and white worms??
Thanks for the reply, and lol, I won't tell..I agree, highly recommend you not perform surgery on a fish for lympho.
It should clear up in time.
In addition, the one time I did, I scraped away cauliflower lympho growths off the mouth of a queen angel because it was unable to eat (it grew over her mouth). It cleared up a month later, gradually. It’s only life threatening if it grows over the gills (to the point it hinders breathing) or if it seals the month (so it cannot eat).
I kept her in a net and placed a small children’s book (the glossy part not the pages) over her, and fit her in to a shallow Tupperware. I scraped gently with the razor blade, using the book to pin her down.
Don’t tell my daughter I used her book.

Oh yes she did. It was a risk for sure, let it fight me for a while first to wear her out!wow this is interesting. Didnt the fish flutter or move? My hands would shake, thats a courageous move to save the fish.
