| Yes it is. It's not fish TB so its treatable! I placed an order with foster and smith so as soon as it gets here I can start treating the angel. but until then I'm using Melafix. | |

| Well it's day 7 of the meds and still no sign of it healing. 3 more days of treatment and then she's done. I'll let her swim freely for a few days then begin the treatment again. | |

| Thank you. I stoped giving her the meds because she was taking a turn for the worst. I did a water change this morning and she seems to be doing better. | |

| I hate to say it Mike, but I've seen several tumors that look allot like that. I hope its not, but that would explain why the medication didn't help. Good luck with her.

| I am thinking it is either tumor or viral, with the streaks and all I am leaning towards a viral disease. Little can be done I think. | |
