Hey guys needing some help before putting these guys in the main tank, Iā€™ve noticed that one of them has a bump on the side, not sure if a disease or just a bit of damage from the shop etc
Any advice would be helpful

cant see any bump, can you tell us where to look or circle the area?
 
Does the bump stick out form the body or is it smooth and just a dark circle?
If it sticks out then it's an issue. If it's smooth then it could be just colouration.

Sticks out on one side, as long as it doesnā€™t effect the others I donā€™t mind but would be good to find a remedy for the fish
 
I need more pictures and maybe a video to try and identify it but it doesn't look like a common disease. It could be a growth in the fish or something else. Monitor it and see how it goes.
 
Hey :)
Please monitor the ammonia, nitrites, nitrates levels and also KH GH pH.
 
Will watch him, they are rather shy, nothing wrong with my water or anything as got from the store that day and noticed under the light when I put the bag in. I do see them now and then in the front part of the tank which is nice, they tend to hang out with the glowlights lol
