JasReef Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I know pics aren't great but this morning I noticed this on my male clown. It looks like a white tick to me. It's white with a black spot in middle. I've been searching but haven't quite found a pic that matches it. I am also partially distracted as I am closing on a house this morning, first world problems I tell ya. [emoji6] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasReef Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 Isopod? That is one of the possibilities. I thought about netting him and gently trying to pull it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sascha D. Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Freshwater bath is a better option. Another option is to QT the fish with a general parasitic. If it were me then I would leave it alone for a few days and see what happens. As long as the fish is eating, acting normal and not losing weight then you're okay.

JasReef Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 Yep. Don't want to chase him around and stress so we will ride this out. I wish I could get a good pic because it is clearly something attached to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasReef Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 Don't know what it was but it is gone. There's no visable mark on his cheek. All clear, nothing to see here. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
