Well once again i need the help of all of your knowledge guys and girls,Snapper my newest lf. has developed a couple of small lumps on his underbelly and one has a pimple look to it,head and all,the second lump seems to be connected to it by a red line under the scales,i am almost certain that an internal parasite is at work.
Please don't ask for pics. because i still don't have that capability.
His appetite is still voracious and very mean spirited(hence the name Snapper) I read a thread awhile back about a similar problem from someone else on this forum, but i couldn't find it. I also don't have a hospital tank big enough to handle this,and i don't know if i can extract this parasite from under the scales or if it will come out naturally,please post on this thread as this lf was rescued from marginal conditions and i don't want to lose this fish.
Thanks one and all in advance,i hope you all can help me with this problem.
