I didnt really think I should put this in the Disease forum, b/c I felt like he doesnt have a disease. Anyway, A week or so ago, I put a post on here about my clownfish. He/she had been hanging in the corner for about a week, acting strange. Some people said it might be the --- change thing, becuase the day before he had been swimming all around. Yesterday, I couldnt find him in my tank...I thought he was hiding somewhere again, Today I looked, and I cant find him again. I looked about 10 mins ago while cleaning up my tank a little, and saw him partly wedged under the rock. I have another fish that was given to me as a present, and have never found out what it is. It looks like a goby or something like it...Hes pretty long...about 4", and is a light blue color with small yellow vertical stripes. The clownfish was wedged under the rock in the gobys "home"...the goby never comes out during the day. Once i pushed the rock up, my clownfish looked pretty bad. He could barely swim out, and when he did, he is almost sitting on the sand. Within a few minutes he made his way back under the rock. His one eye looks a little petruded, but it doesnt really look like popeye I dont think. He has sand all over him, and his fin is all nipped up. Can anyone tell me if there is anything I can do for him to help him gain strength, or grow his fins back? Does anyone know what this could be? I know most will say quarrantine, but isnt there something I can add to the main tank to help him??
Please help!
Thanks
