Amy (and anyone else interested), actually I have only 1 perc in quarantine. I had received a mated pair of percs from a friend, and they were doing quite well in his tank. They both had lesions of lymphocystis, the female with a rather noticable white growth on her gills, and the male with a tiny white spot behind his gills. I placed them in my display tank, as I did not have a QT at that time . They both ate and adapted quite well to my tank, hosting in my frogspawn. Unfortunately after 3 days, the female became ill and died quite suddenly. I don't want to hijack this wonderful thread, so if you're interested here's the story of her demise.

At any rate, my male appeared lonely and I have a new juvenile true perc IN QUARANTINE that I hope to mate with the one in my display. I anticipate that my male will become female and my juvenile will assume a male sex.

I don't have any pics to share today, but I will by the end of the week and I'll post here if you're still interested.
