Something I have never seen before

[cody hendrix]

This male watanabei angelfish has some all these things hanging off it's fines. I have never seen this before. The fish is in qt so I can treat whatever it is. I just don't what what to treat with. It's still very active and eating like a pig

Any ideas?

Possibly lymphocytes

I have had a fish with it before and it was only one spot. I didn't think it could cover a fish this much. But after reading the thread it looks like that what it is probably.

Thanks

I agree with lympho. Common in angels for whatever reason.

Pristine water, healthy diet, along with adding vitamins like selcon and vitachem should help.

It's a virus. Only cure is time and above mentioned general health related items.

Yeah it's probably stress related to being in qt. I have been adding seclon to it's food so hopefully it will go away soon.
