Here's a link to help identifying fish diseases:

(The link is now for the English version)

that fungal infection on them poor fish puts my athletes foot into perspective.

Theres some pretty horrific looking ailments in that collection of pics...

Ugh, Thats horrible stuff but really helpful! Thanks :)

I have a marine fish with 2 little white spots, doesn't look like any of the ones on the list unfortunately but it is similar to the lymphosytitis. They haven't grown at all, been the same size for 3 or 4 weeks and don't seem to be bothering the fish so I think I'll just leave it as it's not spreading.

I have looked at all the pics but cant see anything like whats wrong with my fish. He has developed a pea size lump which i think may be a tumour, other than this he is swimming around and eating as normal. Hes quite old, should i be worried.

great help or identifying issues, bloody shame or them poor fish though :(

Just to note the link to the JBL online Hospital above is not working properly anymore as the site is being rebuilt. If you look, it takes you to the German Version of the site, if you try to access the English version a lot of it is missing. I have been in Touch with JBL and they say that it should be back to normal very soon. So unless you can speak German, I would wait awhile.

Thanks for the heads up J In the meantime you could use Google translate Et voila, c'est tres facile (I know, that's not German, I can't speak German )

I can do German at a pinch if anyone really needs it (though mostly I can talk not about fish but about machine parts being rust free on delivery - used to work in the NCR Augsburg factory purchasing section)
