Hey Lee, hoping you can help out here, our clown has a red mark behind his right fin, and a small red dot on one of his lower fins. I have a pic but it really makes the redness look like a huge axe wound, due to the flash, I will try to get a better one tonight. Also, about a week ago, he had a small translucent spot on his top fin that has been slowly going away.
I know you are going to want my water params, here is all I know off the top of my head:
sg 1.025
no2/no3 0/15
alk 11 and change
ca 390 (trying to formulate a plan to keep this closer to 400)
ph: ?
currently not dosing ANYTHING, but feeding formula1 and mysis every other day, and he eats well. He even feeds his host (frogspawn) the large chunks that he doesn't want.
weekly water changes, about 21% (15g on 70g water volume)
I run chemiclean for carbon, changed about every other WC.
tank mates: snails, 2 peppermint shrimp, 1 tiger pistol shrimp, 1 cleaner shrimp, snails, hermits, etc. NO other fish at all.
I will double check on the above when I get home, but do you have any ideas ?
Also, I have a short vid of his behavior, he looks all excited but it was -right- before I fed the tank and he kinda gets like that when he sees me standing there with a turkey baster.
*** ahh crap, its too large for filehost, I'll have to put it up somewhere else, standby for that
