Hello dear colleges.
Help to recognize what could it be?

I don't even ask for a treatment.

It started after this hot summer when water temperature rose over 28° Celsius and the fish has spawned for the first time since the moment of birth. The fish is 8 y.old
There are no holes on the body and this appendage is not an anus/rectum but next to it. Hence it isn't hexamitosis.
I just can't find any certain information about this case. Anyone ever dealt with this in a fish.
Thank you in advance.

It’s impossible to say anything without any pictures.
My guess is that you are seeing the fish’s breeding tube, but I can’t confirm without images.
