Well my angel has brown lumbs on his body, Not sure if its a Injury, as theres no fish capable of doing it in the tank hes in right now, hes the boss of the tank lol, But yeah i'm worried as i've never had any thing like this before, Hes acting normal, like chasing off fish for the food... umm, trying to jump out of the tank when i go to feed them...

Pic, (sorry for bad quality, Had todo it with my Phone, its the best i could do, my Camera is broke.)

I don't need an answer stright away, as hes acting normal.


EDIT: I just noticed he has alot of Blue were the Injury/Fungus is, Which hasnt been there before, I'm heading over to the LFS tomorrow so could i have an answer by tomorrow so if it requires any Medication to treat him then i can get it then.
 
Bump, going to the LFS in less than an hour so i need an answer if possible.
 
Do you mean brown lumps.

Size of tank in gallons or litres.
How many fish and which type.
Water stats in ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, and ph.

Do teh brown lumps look like a cluster of eggs or berries.
Do the lumps resemble a cauliflower.
Do the lumps look hard or soft like filled with fluid.
Any redness of pinkish to the lumps.
Is there a greyish, bluish film on the fish body.
Any signs of flicking and rubbing.
Any signs of excess mucas.
Any signs of darting or erratic swimming.
Any signs of laboured breathing or gasping.
Any red sores, or red pin prick marks on the fish.

Any brown lumps on the fins.

Tank is 80 Gallons
Theres another 3 Angel fish, 2 Paradise fish, 2 Gourmis, 12 Tetras, and some more small fish, not sure what they are called, Long names.
all the fish have lived happily for over a 2 years, No fighting, ect.
ammonia 0
nitrite 0
ph 7

No signs of anything above, but now the Lumps are starting to look alittle fleshy, instead of round, they now have Bumps, I guess a Cluser of Eggs or berries. and no no Brown lumps on the fins.
And it does look soft, the Angels still active as normal.
 
Cauliflower looking growth, cluster of growth is viral lymthocystis.

All you can do for now is isolate and try a bacterial med.
You need to isolate the fish incase the growths burst and infect the tank.

I ran out of Bacterial med, I thought i had some but the bottles Empty, but it seems its going down now, If it does down a little bit more tomorrow should he be okay without meds? if not il go and get some Meds tomorrow, thats another £20 fuel, anything to save my Angel thought.
 
Did you manage to get the bacterial med. if so which make.
 
Seems to have gone down alot now, Seems my other Angel has it now thought, but its only minior, its already going down.

Thanks.
 
Ok.
