I purchased a pair of naso tangs for my 200 gallon, I understood there would be some differences that would have to be settled between the two. After having them both for about 3 months, one has developed some sort of decay around his/her eye socket. It would start with little white lympho-like growths the size of a buckwheat, and then it would disappear and leave a pit in the skin that looks pretty deep. They both eat very very well get nori 2 times a day along with sea weed extreme in the morning. If this is HLLE I worry I may have to move to a different tank.

HLLE and erosion.
Focus on water quality AAND diet. Fish like this surgeon require at minimum:

-Spirulina brine shrimp
- LRS Herbivore diet
- mysis shrimp
- small plankton
- Nori seaweed basted with garlic extract
- Hikari Marine cuisine
- Formula 2 flake and frozen
- Hikari veggie marine

Add selcon vitamins to the foods 2-3X per week and on alternating days, garlic extract for stamina and immunity health
