So I just watched my purple tang do this:
That is not my tank, but that is exactly what my tang is doing. I’m wondering if it is stray voltage. I once thought I felt something when I touched the aluminum stand and had my hand in the sump. I can install one of those plugs that you put the other end in the water for grounding. But I have no way to test for voltage. Anyone seen this before?
I have not added any new fish in 6 months to this tank. I did add a couple frags that I dipped about 3 weeks ago. My other fish are not acting weird. However my space invader is acting off today, it is not puffy, but it is shrunken, it never looks like this. My magnesium is on the higher side. Salinity is 1.026. PH is correct. NO3 is 8.1 and PO4 is .07.
To get PH there I am Kalk at night = to evap, sodium hydroxide to 8.5 and BiCarb > 8.5, in case that matters. Also doing recirc. Thoughts?

no, prazipro (reef safe), API general cure, or hyposalinity are the ways to treat for flukes. You can also do a 12 hour bath of fenbendazole for Prazi resistant flukes
