Hello everyone, my clown trigger has been almost pitch black last couple days. We had several seizures last week where he took of extremely fast and went right into the wall. Is this a cyanide cought fish? Did amazingly well at first but two weeks in is suffering. He is still eating and all water parameters are in check.

Couple of things to ponder:

Have you checked your tank for stray voltage?

Parasites, especially flukes can cause a fish to twitch, jump, etc.

Cyanide poisoning usually manifests, we think, with blindness, lethargy, and sudden death.

Hi, he did go through a round of PraziPro. I think he is going or has gone blind. He cannot see where the glass of the aquarium is but can avoid the rock work and find his cave. Have to decide what to do now. I have been feeding him by placing krill right in front of his mouth. He has good appetite. I am lost, maybe i"ll try a fw dip. He stays in his cave all day and cannot put of with harassment from the larger angels.

Never have seen this before, he's such a beautiful fish. What do I do?
