I have a Lemonpeel Tang that's been flashing for the past week or more. It's not doing it all the time so I'm not extremely worried yet. I've not seen any obvious white spots but his skin has some very subtle blotchy spots. Nothing on the fins, and he seems active and healthy otherwise. No heavy breathing. All other fish in the tank are OK.
I dosed prazipro yesterday thinking it might be flukes. The blotchiness is still there and he's still flashing. I'm not ssure how long it takes for prazi to be effective. It's either going to take a while longer or it's not flukes.
Based on the image am I treating the wrong problem?
This is a SPS system, 240gallon, with about a dozen fish and 240 lbs of live rock.
Alk: 10.2
Calcium: 420
Mg: 1350
Temp: 79
Salinity: 34.8
Ammonia and nitrite: 0
Nitrate: 3ppm
Phosphate: .03ppm
