Hi R2R,

I recently noticed my clownfish has a bump on its side. Should I be alarmed?

Can you get a picture with white lights?
 
Really hard to tell from pics. Could be lympho.
 
Or possibly a sting from an anemone or coral. Some things are easier to spot under blue lights, but by the time they get through a camera, they're often very difficult to identify.

A white-light photo would help a lot.

Some new photos. Also, my other clownfish has something on his lip, I think it might be lympho?

It looks less bumpy compared to last night I think.

Looks like an injury that was swollen for a bit. It's likely to heal this up on it's own, but keep an eye on that little red spot. If that doesn't go away in another day or so, or gets bigger, then you'll want to remove to QT for antibiotic treatment.
