So on Saturday I noticed my clown was a little splotchy on his forehead, this morning it is quite a bit worse.. any idea what could be causing this? He seems more high energy, racing around the tank.

Please Help !

It appears to have a pink color. It's not ICH or Brook. Doesn't look like Velvet either.

Do you have any nems? Might be stings..

If no nems, I would think its some kinda bacterial infection.

I would try a round of Prazipro and see what happens.
 
Yeah I'm thinking its a bacterial infection? Any other suggestions other than the Prazi? Advice for non-medical routes, just for curiosity?

I have a sixline wrasse, and because my black snowflake is becoming more dominant over my fancy snow, I believe maybe the sixline is picking on him. I noticed his anal fin is also frayed. I'm going to rehome my sixline tomorrow as he tormented my tailspot blenny as well.
