Hi, I would be interested to know what people think is going on here. I have two Mocavinci juvenille clowns I bought at my LFS. They had just arrived when I picked them up a week ago and were still temp acclimating in bags there when I bought them so it was a bit hard to see them well. When I got them home I noted that both had erosions on the dorsal aspect of their posterior heads as well as cloudy eyes (both in one fish, one eye in the other). It has taken a full week for them to get really hungry to the point where they are eating frozen brine shrimp (LFS diet recommendation while quarantining) well now. I have them in a 10 gallon quarantine tank that I have posted about previously. I'm not sure if this is hole in head disease or a combination of things, or if it could be many things; just wanted to see what people though is going on.
I treated with API General Cure as instructed on packaging, removed filter floss until about 24h after each dose (total of 2 doses 48h apart then ran carbon after day 4). So far the only significant improvement I have noted is in appetite but not in the erosions or the cloudiness of the eyes. I'm curious if the next best step is start treating copper or something else.
Any help is much appreciated!
