Hi, has anyone any idea what this is on my torpedo? If has appeared overnight. It isn't slowing him down at all as you can probably tell from the poor pic quality. It's red and bubbly and around a cm long. Thanks.

Could be swelling from a wound or a parasite. Cant really tell with the poor picture quality
 
Hopefully this is clearer. Like I said before, it's not slowing him down lol.

isolate and treat for external parasites and then for fungus. if you dont get to it now it will spread to your other fish.
