Citypainter Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Its a funny looking thing. Could be a parasite. Or just an imperfection like a fat deposit. Has it been noticable for long? Does it effect it its behaviour or swimming ability? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcsx Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 one of my geo's had a similar growth i just kept an eye on it for a few days, and it went away by itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prosavage Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 It looks like Lymphocystis or cauliflower disease Its a viral disease, usually will go away itself as the lump falls off the fish body, it doesnt really affect the fish as it will still swim and eat well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
