well i am sorry to hear that..do you have a 10 gal or more set up handy.. just want you to know you will probably need a hospital tank for sev because i think it will need treatment..it looks like a parasite that wants to come out.. at least that is how it looks in the pics.. is she eating good? How long has it been like this? you fed your fish live feeders?? Not ones u raised yourself? How many fish are in the tank and what size tank? :et me know what size tank you can put her in and whether u have melefix or other med handy.
 
currently i have no tanks set up for hospitalization,ill have to move my jds or something.its eating good,and its been like that for almost a week now.i feed them feeders about once a month now as a treat,used to feed them every week until i heard what everybody was saying on here.i have 2 oscars,1 which im trying to get rid of,2 cons,a pleco,sevrum,and a salvini.i do have melafix.the tank is a 70 gallon

I would add aquarium salt {teaspoon a gallon} you will need a little 10 gallon set up because you really do not want to treat the entire tank if you could help it.. buy a little 10 gallon and use the water from the 70 gal tank to set it up.. the other thing i would use is coppersafe which is for ich, velvet and other parasites... but i would not reccomend treating a 70gal tank with it.. melefix is really not good for parasite {it is really only good for wounds} i read it all =...
 
thank you for your help.i looked at him this morning and i saw that the pimple thing started to turn the same color and it shrunk down a bit too.ill get pics up when i can
