charlesncharge Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 My gold striped maroon has a growth under its chin and belly that I have never seen before!? At first I thought it got in a fight and would just heel but it hasn't decreased/increased in about a month! Not sure what to do or if it will spread to other livestock! PLEASE HELP!! Thanks Quote Link to comment

It could just be starting but you dont want it to spread to where it is all over his body. Move him to a QT and monitor. Also look up different pics of ick on fish and see if it matches what your fish may have. Quote Link to comment
Clown79 Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Ich is white spots. You may see a small white cyst like growth but its not a big growth. Its hard to see the growth in the pic. Ich has various stages of life. Removing the one fish won't do anything if it is ich. All fish would need removal to hospital tank and treated. No fish can be in the display tank for 8 weeks and no new addition of corals, inverts, nothing. I would look up parasites to see if yours matches those pics 2 Quote Link to comment
