I have a yellow eye kole tang and recently it got ich. After being in QT for 2 weeks and showing no signs of the disease i returned him to the main set up yesterday. I noticed when moving him his slim coat was splotchy but assumed it was from treatment and it would repair in my 55gal as it has very good water peramters and lots of live rock for nutrition. Now I see not only is he very thin too but his lips are puffed up and the bristle teeth are overgrown or something. What can i do to help wear it down if thats the case im afraid hes not grazing because its painful becasue he used to graze like crazy. Now its a nibble here a nibble there. I really like him and dont want to lose him so any body with advice or has gone through this please :Cry: im going to ped egg its lips if I have no choice! (Just kidding just kidding)

He'll wear them down once he starts munching on the LR and eating in general. I would assume he didn't have anything to mow down in the QT
 

DO YOU THINK TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCEMENTS ARE MORE HELPFUL OR HURTFUL TO REEFING?

  • I think it depends mostly on the technology.
