Trying to identify whether my clown fish have black ick or being stung by the coral. Just recently moved a pair a clown fish from my main display reef tank 150 gallons to my smaller reef tank 45 gallons in hopes they would make little clownfish. Both tanks are well establish and I have had the clownfish for over a year. Along with nothing new has been introduced to either tank in over six months. Also sorry about the air bubbles in the tank,

Black ich, turbellarians are rare in clownfish, and pretty much non-existent in long term captives. What corals/anemones are in this tank that might have caused stings?

My clowns also have black spots like yours do. Mine live in a patch of Zoas that they treat like an anemone. Some of the black spots are visible in this picture.
