Miss Bad Wolf 23 Posted April 16, 2019 I am not home right now so I cannot attempt to photograph my moor with a tumor on its side. Nor can I test the water until I get home. Is it normal for a fish to get a tumor? It does not seem to bother him, so should I be concerned.Also what is the best way to photograph him? I think I still have an old “betta” tank but is it okay if I put him in it long enough to get good pictures? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It really depends on the tumor on how fast they grow. The best way is in a bowl (white is nice if its a moor). Try to get side and top views. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For another thing I am too afraid to do surgery on my fish. I guess he will know that and not stay still when I operate on him. I am going to hope he is okay with it and go with plan B which is to pray for the fish and hope for the best. I do not think he is in any pain but I do not know goldfish for "are you in any pain?" I assume that the best option is to let him live the rest of his life in peace with a tumor on his side. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FishyMandy 6,272 Posted April 24, 2019 As long as it's not bothering him you don't have to remove it. If it does get to a point where it is bothering him and you choose to remove it, we can walk you through that process too. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arctic Mama 3,625 Posted April 25, 2019 Yeah, I wouldn’t operate for that. Too much trouble if he’s happy otherwise 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
