So I am new to the marine world. I bought a Red Sea reefer and have followed all my lfs instructions. I’ve had a bicolour angel for a week now. First swimming round all happy grazing on live rock. Today a big red blotch has appeared and I have no idea what it is. Fish has suddenly died. Parameters all fine. Other fish (Clown fish) in the tank seems perfect. And ideas would be awesome.

Welcome to r2r !!
Did you cycle the tank ? If so how long ago and were any fish quarantined?
Do you have a pic of the red spot?

A red sore or blotch could be Uronema. We need a pic of the fish if possible. I’m posting a thread take a look at it and see if it matches what you had. Please let us know
Welcome to R2R and sorry about your fish but we’ll get you back on track.
