We have a honey dwarf gourami, I posted regarding this fish before. It has a red puffy swollen looking bottom lip. It is eating, scarfs down the frozen blood worms and eats the flakes as well. I noticed what looked like a flat red mark on the "lip" area a few days ago and have just been monitoring it. I couldn't recall if it had been there all along or was something new. Well today the area looks bigger but the fish is still eating I just fed them to make sure and he's one of the first after the food.

Any ideas what this might be... what do I do for it.

Thanks
 
Hard to say without a photo. Could be an injury, a fleshy tumor, an ulcer,...ect.
 
Any suggestions on how to get a good photo of a fish.. LOL.. do you do anything for the lighting ect. I'll try to get a photo of it and post.

Thanks
 
Patience, grasshopper.
