Hi everyone, I have a harlequin tuskfish who, fore the last two weeks, has been scratching his gill and nose area against the tank wall's. He only scratches a couple of times a day usualy in the morning, and his condition does not appear to be getting worse. I am getting concerned becouse I can see no visable parasites or any symptoms on his body. any idea's on what his problem might bee I would appreciate help. thank you.

Did you just get this fish or have you had it? Some more details needed about the fish.
Also, use a magnifying glass to see if you can pick up any more details that you might not be able to see with the

[hr]
eye. Like red, swollen gills, flukes, other parasites.
How is the fish eating?
