So not sure what caused this but I’ve been reading up on this and think my yellow tang has a bacteria infection. Has been in the tank for a year and no other fish is showing any signs of illness. Problem is I can’t take the tang out without destroying the tank and causing more stress to the tang. Tangs eating, being active, and picking on the rocks still. Read a few different threads and treatments, but can I use this in my mixed reef tank and have my corals be ok.

New guy here, but when my blue tang got very ill I just soaked the MySis in kanaplex and target fed him with my coral feeder. About one shrimp at a time seemed to have done the trick.

Sorry here’s a quick picture as I’m running out the door for work I know it’s very blue but lights are turning and didn’t grab the filter.

Could it be HLLE? I remember reading on this forum, maybe it was Jay Hemdal?, that yellow tangs tend to start showing this disease around the face.
