Looking for some advice on a pair of sick clownfish.
I just got the pair on Friday (9/29/2023). They were purchased online and shipped to me.
They are wild caught pair.
They are in a QT tank and I have been watching the ammonia levels and doing water changes.
Breathing was a little rapid, after acclimation and adjusting to the tank.
Breathing has increased a little each day. I am not seeing any outward signs of disease.
Only the rapid breathing.
My first concern has been brook.
Last night I did a 45 min dip with 0.55 ml of formalin (37% UPC lab grade Formaldehyde).
During the dip the tank was completely drained and wiped dry then filled with fresh saltwater.
Not really a noticeable change in respiration rate.
I have also been dosing MetroPlex to the tank water.
She has been eating, but less interested in it today.

What would you guys suggest I do next?
