We're not talking a small lump either. It's on the body just behind
the head an is a raised area about 1cm x 1cm. The scales aren't raised
and the fish seems quite happy. It's been like it for a couple of
months and doesn't seem to be getting any bigger. I'll try and get a
photo, but it's damn difficult in the pond. Any ideas?
