[niknaksky]

Hi wondering if any one knows what this lump is its near his top fin.
He has had it a while but it seems to keep on growing.
He still eats and acts normal.
Sorry about the pictures only got my phone and it has no zoom.

Looks like it is a tumor, Keep an eye on him if it becomes becomes red and inflamed then def a tumor.

Ok will keep an eye on it.
SO far he seems his normal self lets just hope he stays that way.

Some live with a tumor for a long time, depending on where it is. From the Pix it may impinge on him later if it gets alot larger.
