Hey guys , I am completely stumped & have tried literally everything I can think of , if anyone has any suggestions please let me know I hate to lose this coral I got from Unique Corals that cost over $500 Background: UC Amazeballs Goniopora purchased from unique corals several months ago ...

I recently got a juvenile blue tang and it looked great for the first week. I just noticed today some white spots on his tail and side of body. I’ve never dealt with fish disease before and try to buy from stores that quarantine. I know this blue tang was quarantined before I bought it...

A while ago I made the poor decision to purchase a baby ocellaris clown to pair up with my already established mocca clownfish. I Placed him in the DT (which I’m now starting to regret due to the better safety precautions of owning a quarantine system) and he seemed fine for the first couple...

Hey everyone. I just noticed these white lines on my black Mollies. Can anyone help identify?

Yesterday I lost a bicolor blenny, and after looking closer at my fish I noticed that my clownfish looks like it may have Brook or Velvet, could someone help me id and have any advice on treatment? His behavior looks ok for now, no itching and swimming around and he’s eating a bit. I hope it’s...

Came home and found that my clownfish has dots on his head and white specks on his body, I can’t figure out if it is velvet or brooknella. Can someone also please recommend treatment for the fish? Sorry for the bad quality photos

Hi all. About an hour ago when I was feeding my clowns I noticed this spot on one of them right at the bottom of the gills where the gills and body meet. Is it something to worry about? It's head also seems to be bumpy/indented on one side as well which I will include pictures of. I just so...

My roommate put some chromis i ordered into my DT Instead of QT while I was out. When I got back one of the five chromis I ordered had this nasty cut on it. I am hoping it isn't uronemea. Is it? I'm gonna try and look at it under a microscope tomorrow. If it is.. what now? (I managed to get all...

Hey there, Im hoping someone has a little insight into what this may be. I work at a saltwater store and we have been having tissue necrosis in our sps tank. I took a few sample corals home with me to check under my digital microscope. The first coral i looked at was a mini colony under water...

Hello. First post in the medical section so please let me know if I’m missing something/did something wrong. On Saturday, my banded pipefish had what I thought looks like a small abrasion behind its vent/dorsal fin. There was a small patch ever so slightly off color (more white/faded) with just...

I woke up to my clownfish looking terrible this morning, with what appears to be Ich. It is much worse on my male than on my bigger female although neither looks happy. It is also prevalent on my banggai cardinal and firefish. As I haven’t had experience with marine Ich before, I’m not sure if...

Today noticed some yellow spots on both sides of one of my clowns she’s eating but showing more aggression to her partner than usual. I added a wild fish to the system for the first time last week which I observed but didn’t medicate so afraid something has been introduced to the system. I have...

Hi!! I'm new to the reefing hobby, but I'm a experienced freshwater hobbyist. The thing is, not even experienced friends could tell me what happened to my new rainbow incinerator. I've bought it with a Sunny D in the same store, I've made a dip before putting it in the tank (new tank). The...

These fish have been in QT in Chloroquine at 60mg/gal for 4 weeks now. They have all gone through 2 doses of General Cure as well back to back. I dosed kanaplex and metroplex 24 hrs ago and havent really seen any affect. Ive been looking through a lot of other threads and no one seems to have...

Hello, #fishmedic #jayhamdel #vetteguy53081 Starting to see some white spots on of course the one non quarantined fish in my tank. Any idea if this is Ich and next steps? Other fish don’t seem to be affected so far… Thanks !

I know this is probably one of the most common questions, but I have been digging the interent for hours, eyes are strained and I can't figure it out. My clownfish has a few white spots and patches on one side of her body. None on fins. She's been breathing fast since yesterday and sitting...

Hi, I have a mandarin dragonet who recently developed a single white lump on the side of his face. I have not been able to identify what this is. Any suggestions on what it could be would be greatly appreciated. He is eating and behaving normally as far as I can tell. There have not been...

Hey guys new here and first post. About a week ago I noticed some white spots on one of my cyphastreas. I’ve had it for a year and all parameters are as follows - weekly 10% WC - Salinity - Alk 7.8-8.2 throughout the week, (Dosing Kalk) - Calcium 440-470 - Magnesium about 1300 - Nitrates and...

Hello, I have a Timor erase that I’ve had for around two years now and he has been struggling for months now with something I would like help in identifying. He has a large lump on one side of him and what looks to be another lump starting out almost directly on the opposite side along with a...

So just lost my trachy. Thought it was because pistol shrimp pushed it into favia. Now favia losing flesh. Not sure what's going on. Already pulled it out and dipped in iodine but it looks like it's still spreading. Any suggestions?

I just lost a flame angel. I want to make sure this clown is going to be ok. Any idea if this is a disease? 3 small white dots on clown.

My powder brown recently got ich a few weeks ago and it completely got off him and not onto any other fish and then I woke up today and he is covered in it and has these brown spots all over him as well as ich there’s stuff falling off him in big chunks so I have no clue what is going on.My...

Hi guys, Me again - this fish has previously had flukes which I dealt with several FW dips, moving tank in between each one, prazi pro and NT labs antiwork/flukes and he has was fine after that. He's been eating fine and is very active. He had one of these warts before and thought at first...

I just did a freshwater bath on my Midas blenny & leopard wrasse. Some white flukes came off but there were little brown round dots also. Almost the size of mini brown pellet food. Also some super tiny black - prob black ich for that one. Thoughts. Of course I already dumped the water so no pics.

It was fine 30 mins ago??
