Clownfish keep dying what should i do?

[Arlen nemeth]

I used to have 2 white flurry clownfish did fine the fist 2 weeks then the female began to harass to smaller male. Eventually male died i returned the female. Then i got a pair of normal ocellaris clownfish they did fine. Until they started hosting my torch and seemed to get stung by it and both ended up dying. Should i try another pair? I havent had the best luck

May be an aggression issue. Any unusual haze noted on skin which may be brooklynella ? I always freshwater bath new clowns before introduction to lessen chance of Brook

I looked it up and it did look similar. What should i do is it still in my tank do i still have to treat it?

Typically a freshwater dip followed by a formalin bath but formalin (35% formaldehyde impossible to find)
Although nit the correct treatment, praziPro has been known to help or even an epsom salt bath
