Help! Possible Sick Catfish

[Dubfellas]

Hi. Iv got what i think is a davidsandsi cory cat, and it has 'grown' what i can only describe as 'horns of mould' on the front on his head. I tried to get a pic of him To post on here to show you guys but i couldnt get one so i tried to get him out. I put him in a net and as i was transfering him to a jar he appeared to be dead. As i Was explaining this to my mrs he shot out of the net and swam off. When i looked for him again one of the lumps had gone. When i checked in the net i found it and took a pic of it. It appeared to be a sort of gooey slimey stuff, my mrs thought it might of been eggs but i dont think it is, although i dont have that much knowledge so she could be right.

This is a pic of the lump what came off

This is a picture of my fish

I hope someone has an idea cus i havent got a clue

Sorry for poor quality but its best i cold get

A couple of years back two of my Corydoras sterbai had these subtle semi-transparent patches on their foreheads, I treated with Myxazin (broad range anti-bacterial, like Esha 2000) and increased water changes, the one in better condition made it.

Could it be contegeous?

Could it be contegeous?

Without knowing what it is the assumption would be yesIf you have a quarantine tank then use it - if not any meds used will help the healthy fish fight off the infection.

looks like the suspected Lymphocystitis on my sich sick Schwartzi cory. The lumps grow, disappear then re-appear later. Still alive several months later...​

How can i treat this? Does the fish need quarentining?
