So I got my my Queen Angel a week ago and to my bad luck it started to show limphocystis. I was wondering if anyone out there has any experience with this. All that I have read about it suggest that the fish have to battle this alone and that there's no medication for it. I want to know if anyone out there have treat it this with any success.

It normally clears up on its own. I've had it clear up really fast and had if last for what seemed like forever. Never had it cause much of an issue though.

Same here, my coral beauty had it twice for about a week each time and never seemed to be a problem at all.

Thanks! I just going to take the "make the fish happy approach" and hopefully it clears up, good thing I learned to quarantine fish a long time ago. I think it was cause by shipping stress, I was here when UPS showed up and saw the guy coming out of the truck handling the box like a basketball, I open my door and yelled at him "can you read the box, theres live stock in there!!!" I was so mad. Good thing is that she was eating the first day and other than that its happy.

My watanabe angel had it recently, came in healthy but after going through a copper treatment saw some of this pop up. Once he was eating healthy it cleared right up. You should see him tearing into the fish frenzy now. Anyhow good luck, beautiful fish.

I agree. I've had a couple fish with it, once they get settled and begin eating well, its going to go away.
