Yellow Tang Stressing??

[RosieReefing]

Hello there,

I have the yellow tang for half a year now and recently I’ve been seeing him have these transparent white-ish color on his body and today I can his vein. Is it because he is lack of nutrition??

(Due to the pandemic, I could only come to my workplace, where I have my fish tank, to feed the fishes mysis shrimps twice a week, other days I have the automatic feeder but it can only feed food flakes, twice a day, everyday)

After a month, my yellow tang starts showing the transparent white-ish spots

please help! I love all my fishes! And I want to help them

thank you in advance!

That looks like HLLE to me. That's usually a nutrition problem. Maybe see if you can get a more nutritionally complete flake food. Sometimes copper can cause HLLE too, but since you have corals in the same picture, I'm going to guess copper is not an issue.

See if everyone else agrees.

Something else might be in play here, look at its fins. It doesn't look like it is due to fighting.
