Can somebody tell me what is that big white spot on my clownfish please?
It is not the first time that I see it on him or on my other clownfish, from time to time it shows up. I am not really worried about it, it has been coming and going for the past 3 months now, it appears only on the two clowns 1 or 2 times per months more or less.the fishes are happy, eating and very active, but...what is it? Why it shows up only on the clowns? And why only one?

I was thinking of ich, but it only one of about 1-1.5 mm do diameter.

Thanks!

Google search for images of saltwater fish with lymphocytosis and see if it matches. Looks like it to me.

Kind looks like that, is that something I should worry about?

Just look out for secondary infections. It's a virus and there is no cure. You just have to wait it out for a month or so that it lasts and keep the water clean to lessen the chance of it coming back.
