Hi all,
I am in need of help. Yesterday I noticed that my 1,5 years old Halichoeres Chrysus was with its mouth open and also looked like having some infection on its side. Cannot really precise what, since it doesn't stop in one place so that I can properly observe it. Today I woke up to find my 2,5 years Halichoeres Melanurus with its mouth open also. I am quite worried and a bit lost regarding what to do as they are nearly impossible to catch without completelly emptying the aquarium. None of the other fishes seems to have any kind of issues. I run a 30W TMC UV lamp 24*7, but the lamp is perhaps already over 6 months old, but not by much, since I bought the full set this year.
Did anyone experience such problems with their Halichoeres? What have you done? Any recomendations?
Thank you all.
Cheers
