My poor clownfish have been in QT for 5 months (last time I get any livestock from Petco!) Had them in QT for 30 days and they had white spots so I treated them in Copper - then I found out it wasn’t ick but Flukes so they did 3 weeks of Prazipro and I didn’t see any flukes after the last...
Hello from Ohio!
I'm setting up a new 24g Nano after being out of the hobby for a few years. The photo below was my favorite clownfish, Bob II. I enjoyed Bob's company for several years until the tragedy of a power outage that took out my tank. Kinda knocked the joy out and it's taken me...
Hello, I am pretty new to saltwater and still learning a couple things here and there about saltwater. I got this anemone at my LFS yesterday along with 2 clowns to accompany it and I chose the anemone as a clown seemed like it was already with it and the clown was on top of this anemone. The...
Hi fellow reefers,
I have a GoldXLighting Maroon Clownfish in my display tank that I have had now for 4 years (4.5 inch) and decided to try and pair with a young male of the same kind. My young male (1.5 inch) has recently completed quarantine and is in an observation tank. To best increase my...
Hello all! Long time lurker, first time poster. I'm having a sad emergency with my tank.
On Sunday night my fish were all swimming around and looked fine. Monday evening noticed my gramma wasn't eating at feeding time, but she was still swimming around the tank a bit showing no signs of...
I'm quiet concerned about my clownfish. This morning it ate normally and now it's not eating tonight when I took a closer look at it noticed some off pinkish white colors on the scales. Its behavior has been relatively normal, maybe a little less energetic like usual, but the white dots do...
Can I use a long air stone for beneficial bacteria I’ll leave it off and have another air stone going but I’ll use the air stone for bacteria since it has many small pores so that my rotifers or clownfish fry can’t get stuck in i haven’t seen any discussions on this and just wanted to see if it...
Noticed these dots on my clownfish today. They aren't very apparent in the white light but are very noticeable in the blue light. It's a 16 gallon reef tank. The tank is rather new. I've only had it for a couple months and I added the fish roughly a month ago, after the tank was fully cycled...
2 Oc. Clownfish
1 Spotted coral croucher
1 Cleaner shrimp
3-4 hermit crabs
Any revisions, ideas, or concerns are greatly appreciated, I am new to saltwater aquariums but I have kept multiple freshwater aquariums. Any suggestions for beginner coral would also be appreciated. Thank you in advance!
Hi all, hoping you can help me with my two clownfish. I got them about 6 weeks ago as the first two fish in my tank. I got the tank from someone who had the tank up and running for years. About 3 weeks ago, the darker clown started showing signs of white stuff on his lips. I thought it was from...

I recently added a Midas Blenny to my 35g aquarium, with a pair of clown fish. The last Blenny that I had was super peaceful and shy, but this one has been periodically nipping at the clownfish fins and one clownfish has some damage to his back fins now.
Anything I can do to help with the...
Hello,
I couldn’t necessarily find what the issue could be, or if there’s any issue to begin with. She’s acting completely fine though her colors are more pale than the male. Eating , swimming , clowning around, etc.
These dots are relatively consistent but I’d like to ask for advice. I’d...
I got a pair of clownfish yesterday evening and fed them when they got home. They did not eat, probably because they weren't hungry or just aren't used to the tank. They had been hanging around the sandbed but one of them had been exploring a little bit and going around the tank a little bit...
I’m currently raising a few clownfish fry around 8 are left but their stomachs seem to be bigger than the rest of their body almost twice the size or bigger. If any one has or had this problem and knows the solution would be a great help
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...
Hello, my dominate clown has been rubbing its lower body against the sand bed at night and I’ve never seen this before. I’ve had it for two months and the only other fish is another clown I’ve had for 3 weeks. Should I be worried?
Hi all,
I have a 35gal WB tank with two clownfish, a midas blenny, and mandarin dragonet. I have been unable to get the clownfish to eat for 5 days now. All fish were quarantined and treated with copper and prazipro prior to adding to the DT, foe the clownfish this was in March. Tank has been...
