Okay I just recently saw my clown fish, it came out from hiding in the rocks for a few days. I noticed this lil milky white dot on the left side. It looked like part of it was in the fish's skin. I've attached a picture of the white dot here we go! please let me know what you guys think it is.

Well I just saw my firefish dove into the sand. I don't know if it was trying to get a piece of food ir scratching itself. How can i tell if my firefish has ich? It's body is white so i can't see any white spots near the gils. My clownfish is sharing the same tank and it seems perfectly fine...

k, time for a 5 gallon change on tuesday and another 5 gallon on saturday xD

Originally Posted by 120reefer I agree totally. Seems like its gasping for air. I would say you probably just don't have enough surface aggitation, so theres bad O2 exchange.... and Nofish, and Chinky... I'll put money on it that the reason for your PH being so low was due to the lack of O2...

well last time the pH was at a dangerously low level 7.6 but this was before i added any fish. I've also used a pH buffer. To raise the pH slowly. Since then i've done 2 water changes and added the pH buffer twice. I will test my waters tomorrow to see whats the pH at. I just hope nothing is...

okay after my clown seemed to have gotten better it just totally stopped eating today! It wouldn't eat any of the mysis shrimp with garlic like it would use to. Also its acting straight its head is pointing up and its at the top of the water where it would occasionally dip its mouth out of the...

okay nvm. i found out why he had that open sore. Its from him feeding. I fed him flakes just now soaked in garlic and the flakes sinked right to the bottom on the sand bed. He dove down to eat the flakes and scratched the bottom part of his jaw. But still whats causing him to become darker?

Originally Posted by Arandacole Can someone explain this to me a bit? I feed either flake ( a mixture of formula 1 and 2) or frozen brine shrimp. In my mind.. soaking food would require that the food be big enough to soak (in my mind I'm thinking marinate the food - silly, I know) How do you...

Originally Posted by ImUrNamine Do you know what type he is? Is he a Percula, Clarkii, or do you know...? I have two Clarkii clowns and on my larger one, her top half is darker. I think it's natural, but I'm new at this. I just thought I'd let you know that I'm going through it, too. It...

Hey there, a couple days ago my clown fish had what looked like an open sore on the bottom of its mouth. After a water change and some vitamin + garlic loaded feeding the sore healed, but now the top half of my clown fish has gotten quite darker. Is this normal? it Looks sort of like almost...
