Is this Lymphocystis on my trigger?

[Van Wertein]

Should I be concerned if nodules is taking fin with it when it falls off.?Small clown trigger under 2" Thanks

That would be a little unusual for lymphocytosis. I've never had it damage a fin. I would watch it a little longer just in case what we think is lympho is really a bacterial infection. Can you post a picture or a video(sometimes easier to see it on video).

Does it look like this?(on the Flame wrasse)

He has had since I got him on 7/17. Has had one speck on back tail and just recently on top fin. On 30th day of therapetic cupramine. Ready to hit display unless you think it's bacterial.

Will try to get a better pic when it eats (camera shy right now)

Does this look like lymphocystis or a bacterial infection on the trigger's lower back bottom fin and the speck on back fin. Thanks @Humblefish @melypr1985

That could be Lympho; but being it's massed together in one spot like that, I'd be concerned that it might be a bacterial infection: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/bacterial-infections.191511/

Okay Thank you! Would Furan 2 be Ok or is there a better option? Is Furan 2 Ok to mix with Cupramine?

Furan-2 is a good first step and can be combined w/Cupramine.

. Started Furan 2.... Took him out of copper and ready for display after infection heals up. What should I look for to tell medicine is working? Whiteness on fin comes off or? Thanks

The white patches should diminish and eventually go away. However, antibiotics are notoriously slow acting in fish so you may not see results for 10-14 days.

Thanks again! Furan 2 Did the trick!

Is this Lymphocystis on my triggerfish? Do I need to pull him out of my display?

Pics are a bit grainy on this end. Are we looking at the white area under the trigger's eye?
