Post pics. You have a camera available since posting your 2 LMBs feeding in their new tank:

Pics will allow us to see if the spots/bumps are fungal or from injury or?

Did you catch the LMB? If yes, where was it caught?

There are several waterways in FL that have been found to contain LMB-virus. Any change to their immune systems, such as being caught and placed in aquaria, can trigger the infection (especially in hook caught fish). The virus is also found in other centrarchids, like SMBs and sunfish, but has only been fatal to LMB populations.

Are there any other symptoms such as erratic swimming, hovering nose up or leaning to the side, and/or visible swelling in the abdominal area?
