Lymph or ich or something else?

My new copperband has some white spots. She’s eating and just moved from quarantine to my display tank. Two days after moving she developed these spots. Any ideas what it is? Any treatment needed?

As typical on this type of fish, this is likely lymphocystis which they are susceptible to and is viral, not parasitic and will go away on its own. Lympho is a condition and not disease which is viral. Often its associated with water quality issue as simple as elevated ammonia or nitrate and can be that of water from LFS and not yours. Assure to provide Good water quality monitored by a reliable test kit and feed nutritious food with fats such as LRS fish or Herbivore frenzy, plankton, krill and mysis shrimp.

Can you take a picture with white light? The big spots look like lymphocystis

This is Lympho and is basically harmless. CB's seem pro to this viral condition.

I agree, this looks like Lymphocystis, but I'd like to confirm that with clearer pictures under white light. The risk is that there could be mostly Lymphocystis, but with something else mixed in.
