clown fish diagnosis

I have a question about one of my fish. It has been completely fine up until now, but today it has been staying mostly at the bottom of the tank, close to the intake in the aquarium. It occasionally swims upward, but returns to the same spot. Earlier today it showed interest in food and chased...

I have a clownfish pair, and the male has the skin on only the left side of his body peeling. It is near his tail at the end of his body, and white. He behaves normally and still has a normal appetite, what could this be and how do I treat? There’s no other fish apart from the 2 clowns and no...

Hey all I just got this pair of clownfish on Monday and this one is swimming weird and always swims on top like that(idk why my camera didn't want to focus) he is still eating and interested in food some I'm not sure if I should be worried or be doing something to help. Thanks in advance!

First picture with blue loght is now. Second picture with white light is 5 days ago when I got the fish. On the second picture we can see the onyx has a white mouth with lesions. Because I don't have an hospital tank I swapped it at the store and the new one is doing good. I am more concerned...

Hi, I have a question regarding my clownfish in my 6 gallon reefcasa. Specifically, I noticed that my new clown has displayed some fraying/ discoloration of its fins (I’m not sure how to add pictures but I’m working on attaching them now.) I cycled the tank for about a month with turbo start...

Hi any one have any idea what this mark could be on clownfish face or what course of action to take thanks

Hello everyone, I am "new" in the hobby (had a saltwater tank about 20 years ago that ended in disaster, and my frustration kept me away form the hobby for two decades), and I just got my first fishes, a pair of Perculas, one bigger and one smaller. Right off the bat, they started to nip at...

This 15 gallon nano is 2 months old. I only had a pair of clowns for a little over a month and then I put in my Duncan and pipe organ because they looked unhappy in my other tank. The coral actually started improving surprisingly to me and all was seemingly well until last night. Last night, the...

So currently in my tank i have 2 Clowns, Orange Shoulder Tang, Blue Tang, Flame Angel and an Epaulette Shark These are the water parameters and yes I know Alk was low but has been increased. So basically out of all the fish I have currently the 2 clowns have white spot the larger one being...

So two days ago I found my female clown on the floor and my male in the rear filtration chamber on my tank. It was obviously too late for my female but I put my male back in the display tank and even though he was clearly looking for her all day which breaks my heart he was physically fine. That...

Hello, I recently received a pair of clownfish as a birthday gift, and I am not sure how to properly care for them. They have been active and eating well for the past four weeks, but today I noticed that one of them is bent on the sand. I do not have the proper testing tools. Can you please...

1st photo and video is of our male clown. His color is drastically lighter than usual. His breathing and mouth movement is extremely fast. The 2nd photo and video is our female clown. Her color hasn’t lightened but she’s having the same breathing and mouth movement issue. This started within 4-5...

My female clownfish has raised red mark on her side. It's a raised red area that's pushing up under her scales. Wasn't there yesterday, it's sudden and looks pretty bad. Anyone know what it could be or have advice for treatments? I have methylene blue, API General Cure and Seachem Focus

Hello all One of my new clownfish (arrived last Friday) have developed this night a kind of white patch discoloration on his skin, he swim normally and he eat just before this video(and have feed his anemone too). He seem to breath a little faster than the other one. And the other one is...

Hey all! I posted this on Humblefish, but there were not really any suggestions or ideas so I’m hoping to get some opinions here! I have a pair of captive bred clowns that went through QT (arrive, H202 dip then MB dip), straight into 2.5 copper for 15 days (doing GC, Kana and Metro at...

Hi, I am in the process of building a 60g cube, and figured I’d take advantage of Petco sales and get a 20g for an observation tank, and to get my first fish. I was lucky enough to find 2 black storms at Petco for less than $40/fish (bad to buy from Petco, I know, but couldn’t pass up on $200...

My clown fish has been acting weird. Constantly laying on their side, but will swim when I walk up to the tank. Their color looks great, I don’t see any signs of an illness. I’ve had this clown for 7-8 years now. However. There does appear to be a slight purplish mark on their one side, but...

I recently introduced a new clownfish to my tank. My old clown is a little bigger (but not by much) so I am assuming it is a female. It’s been in my tank alone for about 3 weeks after killing my 6-line wrasse. I gave her a new clown today (same kind of clown) and now she is pecking at it. Is...

He is new and my only survivor of a shipment of 5. Came with a couple of white spots on him now there's more. There's no extra slime on him, just dots.

This morning when I checked my tank, there were no dots on this clown, but when I was checking this afternoon he was absolutely covered in them. I’ve moved him into a qt. Wondering if it’s ick or brook? I’m fairly new this tank is a year old and the clown I’ve had for maybe 8-9 months. I really...

I’ve had this pair of clownfish for about a year, when I woke up this morning I noticed they weren’t together. The smaller of the two I found in the middle of the tank almost on the sand and hugging and rock. Almost never leaves the top corner except to eat. He also in normally a dark orange...

I've had my clowns for about three weeks now, my bigger clown (the spaz one) has been swimming like this quite often, especially when the blues come on. She likes to glass surf a lot during the day and swim into the power head, she mainly only doesn't spaz out during feeding, she will start...

Hi group, After much research and reading I’m 99% convinced my Picasso Clown has Swim Bladder Disease. He was in a tank with parameters of no3 10 po4 0.07 Salinity 1.024 Temp 76.0 F With another Picasso, 6th line Wrasse, YWG, and a CB Shrimp. All others are doing well. however, my clown...
