Clown going downhill

anon9896 · Jan 11, 2020

Hi , for a couple of days i've seen my clown losing patchs of colors.
Lately I've added a wrasse that felt like something was itchy but now he is ok.
The clown made himself at home on this hammerhead for a month max.
I'm starting to think this might not end well.....
The clown has no strange behavior.

Brooklynella ?
I've read it goes fast ... I should see a huge difference tomorrow morning right ?
I should be able to catch the guy easy with a net (touch wood)
Anyone can confirm this ?

"Losing patchs of color" could be an indicator of Brooklynella. The fish will appear to have skin sloughing (falling) off.

Slow down. I think you need to get this under control before adding (or even thinking about adding) anything else or setting up anything else.

Did they go from the LFS right into the display or did they make a stop off in QT?

I have that fish for 2 years now

Have you recently added anything new to the tank? If so, it may have been infected and infected established fish in your display.

second line of the first post of my thread lol.
I'm 100% ure it's the wrass fault, and no he didn't go through a quarantine.
Not everyone has the means of it.
But now that it is set up , I'm thinking of it as possibilities <3
