Clownfish behavior

[hayden48]

One of my clownfish is swimming like this

All of my parameters are where they are supposed to be but it’s constantly swimming like this today

When the clown is not in the pipe does it continue to swim like that?

Looks like rapid gill movement to me. Are they in quarantine? Do you have an ammonia reader? #fishmedics

Yes, but it will swim around more and then go back to acting like that

I use an ammonia alert in my tank that has always stayed at 0.02 or less. I also use a red sea test kit and api test strips and it says i have 0 ammonia. I don’t have a quarantine tank.

Welcome to Reef2Reef!

From the stilted swimming, I’d say this is Brooklynella. I’d treat with ruby reef rally pro in the tank and perhaps a higher dose dip.

A pure sign of brook and fish will respond well to Ruby Rally Pro and is safe for inverts and coral
