breakaway Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 My biggest female puffer has what appears to be a growth. Popped up approximately 2-3 days ago. Looks a lot like a 'pimple'. Her appetite is normal, and the fish doesn't seem otherwise distressed. The fish shares the tank with 5 other puffers who all appear 100% healthy. I've had the fish for 3 years. Any ideas?!

GrahamC Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 if it only just popped up recently ( as opposed to being just noticed recently ), then it is likely to be an infection and not a tumour. Looks near where one might find a nares pore infection ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
