I have 6 glass Catfish that I have had for some time. I recently upgraded from a 55 to a 125 gallon tank(over the weekend). I imported about 40 gallons from the old tank into the new and added fresh water to make up the difference. We are running the old filter with an additional new filter. All has been well thus far but I noticed today that one of our glass cats has a yellow mass above/behind his eye. You can see through the fish that the mass seems to be coming from, or growing into the inside of the fish. It is about the size of a poppy seed, maybe slightly larger.
He has always been smaller than the other cats and sometimes wanders away from the pack but he regularly schools with them and has been feeding normally. I feed them flakes 2-3 days in a row, then blood worms the 3rd or 4th day.
I'm not finding anything online and I'm pretty new at the aquarium thing so any advice would be appreciated. I also have some tetras that are sporting a little snow. Picking up a test kit tomorrow to check my water as I'm currently fresh out but can I up the water temp to 86 with the glass cats for a week or is that no bueno for them?
edit: As far as increasing the temp is concerned, we are running two filters(one rated for 70 gallons and the other for 90, I believe) that do a pretty good job at agitating the surface as well as an air pump rated for up to a 75 gallon tank. I would think this is giving us more than adequate oxygen levels?
