In qurantine tank all the parameters are fine but the chromis can't swallow any of the brine shrimp that I feed it today. For the past 1½ weeks it was barely able to eat any of it, going on and off on it's ability to swallow but when it did it would only eat about 4 or 5 pieces at best. Yesterday it was only able to eat the largest pieces and spat out all the smaller ones which rules out the possibility of gill flukes and now today it cannot swallow anything.
On top of all this it is acting fine with no flashing or gasping for air and it's clearly hungry as it darts straight to the pipet. Plus when I first bought it, it would easily eat half a cube of brine shrimp with no waste to speak of.
However I have noticed that it has a lot of discolouration, especially on the green part and today I did see it darting around but not scraping against anything or hitting.
If anyone knows what is going on please tell me as this is *not* flukes because even with a freshwater dip and adding prazipro it hasn't gotten any better.
