Okay so I was feeding today and I noticed this on one of my clownfish it looks like white patches just behind but not on the gills on both sides. It is nowhere else on the body It almost has a reflective look to it and could be just a faded area I can not tell to be honest what it is. Clownfish is acting normal and eating.Sorry the pictures aren’t great.

I just noticed something that looks just like that on my clownfish yesterday. It’s even in the exact same spot. I’m definitely gonna follow along and see if I can find out what it is.

Mine is just on one side I think. I have noticed my clowns rubbing on the wall lately, and I wonder if it could have come from that. It’s not the normal flashing from parasites, but they’re moving back and forth like they’re trying to clean the wall.

My clown's fins were fading and getting white spots. Put him in QT and started Ich-X treatment and then followed by General Cure. Unfortunately it was too late and he passed. I didn't even get to feed him medicated food.

Looking back I probably could of acted a week earlier before the, I think, internal parasites got him.
I saw white poop and he stopped eating. Food was just hitting his face and he was not interested.
I wish I would of pulled him out and started treatment.

What sucks is that I QT all my fish with a medicated TTM (IchX, Prazipro, and EM medicated food) for 8 days.
He was good for 2 months and then he got sick. SMH.
