Ok, my tank is a 55 gallon tank and has 55 ilbs of live rock in it.. It has been cycleing for 2 months and now my mom picked me up two donim0 )hope I spelled that right) damselfish and a perc. (clown). Probably had a lot of stressbeing they where in the bags for 5 hours. When they got to my tank I let the bags float and introduced them.. They seemed shy and staid in the live rock and I noticed the one domino was a little beat up or something.. This was this mourning at 3 a.m... This mourning at 7 is I fed them and they all ate and when I came back from work at 6 both the clown and domino where swimming around but the domino that was hurt or disease or whatever was hiding in rocks and looks worse.. His back tail and up to his front fins doesn't look good.. I don't know if its a disease or injury but I have no Qt tank or ick med., that is accept freshwater med.. Now I have him in a plastic container that hands on to the side of the tank... It has holes drilled into it to get water into it from the tank.. What should I do??? I can take a pic of him with my digital camera amd mail it to your e-mail.. Thanks for any replies

Sound like it could be that he suffered aggression. You can post a pic here by posting a message, then going to the bottom before you hit sent and attaching a pic.
Where these fish in the same bag? If you mom got the fish, did she notice if they were sick??
Have you notice that any of the fish are picking on this sick one?

It is not easy to mix same species fish in the same tank. They usually fight, with one being the dominate and eventually harrassing the weaker to death.
