The Rockport Aquarium has a 15 inch Atlantic pompano that has developed a disease we cannot diagnose. It presents with brown-black spots on the head and fins and scattered lumps on the body. The fish swims in circles, sometimes tilted to one side. Eyes are clear, normal looking, breathing normal, and it feeds when presented with food. The problem has apparently not been transmitted to other scaled fish in the tank. We treated with Melafix/Pimafix and got remission, but it is back. We hate to lose this guy.

Pictures are available. Suggestions will be appreciated.
