Growth on a white cloud

[Lynn B]

One of my long fin white clouds has a growth near his eye, but it is not on his eye.  It looks a bit like a wart, doesn't seem to bother him, but does me.  I have isolated him and treated him with Maracyn, but no change, could this just be a harmless growth or should I try something else.  Thanks.

What are your water parameters and can you get a picture of the sick fish

Every time I try to reply to this question it disappears...the growth is not fuzzy at all, looks like a solid mass and wondering if it's not contagious?

It could be a tumor if it's a solid mass

[Lynn B]

Do you think it's contagious?  I would like to put him back in the main tank, or should I just humanely put him down?  He's not suffering, eating and swimming well.

I would keep him Qarantined for now and monitor if it get worse he might not be able to eat it could be something else other than tumor it difficult to no for sure

@Lynn Btry to get a better picture of it, it looks like you are using a cell phone, sometimes it helps not to try to zoom in too close, and to let the fish swim into the picture, rather than to try and follow it. You will notice an area the fish frequents, just try to focus there , wait, and push the button once the fish appears in the picture.

If you can get a better picture I can try search in my assortment of fish health books for you to see what it might be.
