  1. Looks like tumors.  Fish can suffer from tumors like most other animals.  They can be from cancer or can have parasitic origins.  I can't tell from the pictures, but it could be from a protozoan parasite that causes cysts/tumors to grow all over a fish's internal organs, eventually pushing outward through the body wall.  

    Is that a koi or a big goldfish???


  2. why did you take the poor fish out of the water!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  3. they look kind of like ulcers to me.
