Growth on Fish

[styx911]

This growth appeared 1 week ago on my young Koran Angel. I have been to 3 LFS and they have all been unsure but have all recommended different treatments. Not sure what it is or what to do.

That looks a lot like the fishes intestines.But could also be some kind of cancer.

I'm going to move this to the fish disease forum,so hopefully you can get more help with the problem.

The growth is on the fin and not the body. If it is some type of cancer, is there anything i can do about it?

I have no idea.
You might could call around to some the vets in your area.Some can and will treat fish.One of them may be able to help you out.

Lymphocystis. It's a viral infection. It should go away with improved water quality.
