first not eating..now Lymphocyctis?

[ca161406]

regarding my bicolor angel
im about 98% sure its lympho. he has one on his fin, and i think in his mouth too.
tried catching him for a good hour and had no luck. im soaking some brine in garlic right now so i hope he takes to eating it.
water quality is perfect so that cant be the cause. i think its because he hasnt eaten in 3 and a half days.
gr.
any tips? ...thanks

I linked your other topic from the Fish Forum here, otherwise it will be hard to figure out what is going on.
How long have you had this fish, how long was it in QT, and when did you move it to the DT?

cool thank you

ive had it sense the 3rd and moved it to DT on the 8th. i know it was quick but it looked way cramped in the tank and was healthy under the magnifying glass and eating as well.
so its been in the DT sense the 7th. its still in there because i didnt want to stress it even more trying to catch it again. and i read that its only contagious to similar fish.
on a good note the cyst on its fin is gone but i think theres still one in its mouth, and it hasnt been eating from what ive seen. although still active and bossing around the trigger

well it appears that the lympho is gone. but it still hasnt eaten from what i have noticed.
still active and all but im just worried its going to catch up to it eventually if he dont start eating

So it was eating while in quarantine but isn't now? What are you feeding it? Bicolor angels can be touchy with regards to feeding. Doubtful that not eating for three days caused the lymphocystis. Is the fish being pestered by anything else in the tank? Are you certain it is lymph?
