Hi guys.
Hope you all are doing ok!
Yesterday I noticed my Male Agassizii had a weird growth in his ventral fin.
I immediately isolated the fish and applied esha2000 preventatively. (although I don't know if it is a viral, bacterial or other problem)
I did some reading and the most identical thing I could identify was the Lymphocystis viral infection (apparently without any medication that could help).
In any case, I would like your opinion on what could be affecting my fish. How can I help the healing process? Is it possible to predict whether this disease will be contagious?
Yesterday I carried out the treatment with esha, and today I will perform a water change of around 30/40%.
Sorry for the low quality pics, but is hard to get good quality photos while zooming.
(note: although in some pictures it looks like the growth might be attached to the body i can 100% confirm that it is located in the ventral fin)
