I bought a mated pair of true percula clowns yesterday...i acclimated them as followed:
20 minutes to temp, then i put them under a drip line for an hour...currently the male looks fine, but the female is still breathing heavily tonight and isn't very active...she is actually hovering in the same general area...
This isn't the worst of it though...i also believe that the clowns came with a disease...i believe that its the clownfish disease...i notice cloudy areas on the body of the male but i cant tell about the female...
I was suggested that the female could be breathing heavily b/c of a fish that was in my tank but isn't anymore...i was also told that it she could still be acclimating...but i dont know?
Now, onto the disease, i cant get a picture good enough for anyone to see. I was suggested either to preform a freshwater dip (but i dont think i want to do that b/c i am scared that they would die) or i could setup a QT tank and give them medications...i was told that this medication cant be given in a main tank b/c it will kill off all bacteria good and bad...
So what can i or should i do guys? I need help!
Thanks!
