One of my emerald catfish has weird white growths on it's ventral and anal fins it has recently developed one on it's nose. None of my other emeralds or corydoras have it he dosn't seemed seem affected by it. Any and all diagnosis/speculation is welcome.
I all ready posted this in the catfish section and got no responseweird growth1.jpg weird growth2.jpg
 
So yeah -that was the beginning signs of lymphocystis. If you have a fish that has white growths that are kind of tumorous looking they might have it. I brought it into my tank with that emerald catfish and it spread to my electric blue acaras. Crazy water changes has reduced the signs of it to almost nothing but from what I've read all my fish probably have it now.
