Yellow Tang With Lymphocystis

[Alex Brown]

Hi, recently added a YT to my 8 month old reef, four days ago.

I belive it might have a case of LYMPHOCYSTIS, currently there is one small "tuft" on the top fin, I will try get a picture but he too damn fast!

Is there any help you guys can give me please? I cant afford to loose this fishy.

Tang is eating, swimming and acting just fine. Was not in shock when added to aquarium either. Looks like it has been there forever

Wot does the LYMPHOCYSTIS look like, is it a white almost fluffy looking ball ?? if so i had exactly the same thing on a YT when i added mine to the tank. Within a week or so it simply fell off.
