Been awhile since I posted but my Clownfish looks to have blisters on its fin and tail. It still eats good and swims normal. These are the best pictures I could get. None of my other fish have these symptoms not even the mate to this clown.

Pics are blurry but the clown looks pretty beat up. What other fish are in the tank? Inverts? Anything else affected?

There is a Valminji tang, a pajama cardinal, another clown (it’s mate), and a Midas blenny. Then your basic snail and hermits. They tang and cardinal have been it there with it for two years. The blenny stays in the holes of the rock.

Tough to see in the pictures.

I agree, the one clown looks like it has some bite marks on it. Clownfish can live together fine for some time and then start to fight. They are also really sly and wont fight when you are watching them.

The midas blenny has an problem, take a look at this post: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/skinny-blenny-issue.922129/

Yea I’m having trouble getting him to eat. He will eat every now and then. I’ve tried three kinds of pellets and more types of frozen food than I can count
