A few days ago I noticed on my Molly’s chest area that a large bump appeared it’s off centered and other than the lump itself my fish has been acting normal. can anyone point me in the direction of what this may be?

I was trying to but for some reason the app isn’t letting me. It says it’s disabled ??

I went online instead of the app, here are some photos!

No. Everything seems totally normal except for the bump. I figured I would give it a few days to see if it got smaller or bigger but it hasn’t. I will post a picture I took from the first day I noticed it. It was definitely an all of a sudden thing though, not slowly growing with time.

Here is from the other day

If it grows bigger in a few more days, that means your fish likely has a tumor.

Nope. Unless you want to pay a lot of money for a vet to cut it off. Doesn't guarantee that the tumor won't come back.
