I currently have a 65 gallon qt set up. I’m running copper power at 1.75 with 4 fish - 2 clowns, 1 longnose, and 1 sailfin. They have been in qt for 5 days (3 in full therapeutic levels of copper). I’ve now noticed this white bump on my sailfin. It’s been there since I got it but seems to be getting larger in qt. Can’t anyone help diagnose it? And help me with the treatment plan? The initial plan was 2 weeks in copper and then tank transfer to prazi for two weeks. And then into DT.

Probably lymphocystis a usually harmless virus. Treat by boosting the fish's immune system. Add vitamins to the fish's food. I prefer to add Beta Glucan as it will tremendously boost the immune system. Highly recommend it.
