DevilDuck Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Hi @Humblefish Does this look like lymphocystis on my clown or could it be something else. The white patch has grown in the last few weeks and I am concerned. Quote Link to comment
Humblefish Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 That looks more like a bacterial infection than Lympho. I personally would treat with Kanaplex + Metroplex in a QT for 10 days. 1 Quote Link to comment

DevilDuck Posted February 22, 2021 Author Share Posted February 22, 2021 @Humblefish Today is day 10 of quarantine and no improvement I've toss everything I've had at him Kanaplex + Metroplex + Furan-2 and Paraguard throughout QT. Water changes and redosing every 48 hours, Paraguard was dosed daily as per instructions. Fish has good appetite and shows outward signs of distress. Quote Link to comment

At some point you have to discontinue all meds, maintain good water quality, feed vitamin enriched foods, and let the chips fall where they may. 1 Quote Link to comment

Thanks. I'll give it a few more days and return him to the main tank. 1 Quote Link to comment
DevilDuck Posted February 26, 2021 Author Share Posted February 26, 2021 Clownfish was returned to the display tank today to re-join with its partner. So far both fish are acting normally and hunting copepods together. 1 Quote Link to comment

Is there the word "no" missing there before "signs of stress"? ...or are you saying he's eating well, but acting weird? And how's he doing now? Spot gone? Bigger? 1 Quote Link to comment

And how's he doing now? Spot gone? Bigger? One month later, Clown has no signs of stress and is eating well. He has grown quite proficient at nipping my hand when I work in the tank. The white patch near his head has flattened out and has less of a lumpy appearance. It has also shrunk down about 1/3 of the original size. 2 Quote Link to comment
