Any help would be greatly appreciated.
@Jay Hemdal do you see anything? And if you don't see anything what power should I look at for a bacterial infection or the flukes?

You won't see bacteria unless you are at 1000x with a phase contract microscope.

Did you see anything moving? For me, that is what I key in on. Like in the second image - those faint brown spots are likely just chromatophores, but if they were moving, I would be suspicious.

Third/fourth image are either strands of fabric or algae.

Five and six have those two odd golden inclusions - if they were moving I'd be worried, else I don't know what they are.

Last image is likely just mucus cells.

I can go up to 2000 on my microscope btw, just a light microscope. And no I didn't see anything moving. Thanks for the reply. I still see a little haze on the fish. Idk what to do, I still have 1 more dose of prazi, and I put in 2 treatments of Kanaplex.

I've never been able to determine anything regarding bacteria with a microscope, I don't even bother going above 150x any more. I can't think of any external parasite that won't move in some fashion, even ich trophonts will sort of tumble and ooze. I have really bad "eye floaters" so I rely on movement 100% - if I don't see movement, I call it good.

I got them eye floaters too but gets worse with more power.

@vetteguy53081 this was a 2nd skin scrape of the clownfish, because I felt I didn't get a good one on the other post but I am concerned with the first image...clownfish scale?
