Betta Has Small White Blob Under Gills

[keithp]

My female betta has a small white blob under one of her gills, it's too big to be ich, and the rest of her body looks fine. As she swims it seems to "sway", almost like if a person has a scab hanging on them while in the water, it sways in the water as it's hanging by a thread.

Sorry for the poor quality, but to get a good picture of such a small,speedy fish that hates the camera flash it's difficult! Look by the red arrow.

Hi

Not entirely sure what it is, sorry. Things that spring to mind are - Damaged tissue, gill fungus?

Maybe stick a post on "Emergencies" just in case
