Hi
don't want to jump the gun with this but my clownfish which I've had for over a year and a half is starting to show some weird marks on her body and there is a tar like mark on her jaw I noticed this about week and a half ago, She eats swims bullies well. I've noticed what she is hosting my indo gold torch and this thing is super sticky so sticky I can not add it next to any other torch because it stings them or any other coral for that matter. I've noticed that it was sticking to her body which could explain the marks on her body, It don't however explain the gray tar mark on her jaw line. she is a extreme midnight snowflake so I'm not sure what to look for in terms of illness as her color is white. she had white stringy poo when I got her over a year and half ago which I used metronidazole in a table as I could not get general cure in my country tbh it's hard to get drugs without prescription in the uk which sucks any ways getting off track here. but long story short I cured this problem. when i googled online it was pointing towards brooklynella but I'm not sure this is my problem. I really don't want to pull her out and bang her in meds unless I really have to the stress it puts on them knocks it back from when i last qt her. I would like to know if others have had this kind of problem or if it's the stings from torch making this problem... thoughts please?
 
Any Help from Clownfish Owners? Sorry I can't be much help but I can be a bump to maybe get some help...
