Hi everyone,

I was doing a water change and left the pumps off for about 2 hours and noticed my female clownfish laying upright and then getting up and swimming a bit. I don’t think it’s an oxygen problem as all the other fish are just fine. I did noticed some white spots but I was cleaning my sand bed and I’m not sure if it’s from the debris. She got up and swam around in circles twice and my tank has had a history with ich but I treated all fish in quarantine for 3 months. I’m not sure what could be wrong because she was eating just aggressively earlier. I hope it’s not ich but any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Can you take another photo or video with some good white lighting?

She got up and started swimming a bit but I’m leaving the light off for now to try to reduce any stress she may have I’ll try to film a video

Can't give any good identification with blues.

No problem she seems to be doing a bit better. If same behavior continues I’ll update. I did notice the salinity go from 1.025 (level before water change) to 1.020 (level after water change) do you think that could’ve done something? The other fish seem perfectly fine. Thank you!
