HI I HAVE A OCEAN GREEN THAT RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIS BACK TAIL FIN ABOUT A 1/4" IN IS PALE/FLESH IN COLOR. THE REST OF IS BODY IN NORMAL VERY NICE, AGGRESIVE AND EATING WELL. IT HAS NOTHING GROWING ON OR OUT OF IT. HAS ANYBODY HAD THIS PROBLEM OR KNOW WHAT IT IS? :confused:

Shawn,
It will be a bit difficult to know exactly what it is without a picture. See if you can get a picture and post it. It will help out a great deal. Thanks
