My clown who went through roughly 6 weeks of QT. QT consisted of Copper, PraziPro, Metroplex, Furan, Methelyne Blue and Malachite Green Dips.

I put him in the DT tank roughly 3 weeks ago and tonight I see this. It seems to only be on the white part.

It’s like the white is translucent. He appears fine and doesn’t seem sluggish or breathing heavy.

The DT was a new tank with dry rock that went through 6 weeks of cycling so no prior disease or parasite could have been in it.

Looks like it could be velvet.

Looks like the start of brooklynella, typical clownfish disease. Give it a freshwater dip for 3-5 minutes. If progresses, general cure or ruby rally reef is the cure used as a daily bath as both contain formalin
