sick clownfish help

So - the trouble is that shipping damage and Brooklynella look really similar without using a microscope. Brook takes a few days to get started though, so my thought is, if you received a fish with advanced Brook, it was shipped to you like that. Good dealers won’t ship obviously ill fish….but some might.
Have you tried feeding them yet?

Tail is likely the result of aggression - probably figuring out who’s boss.
