Hi all,
Firstly sorry for the sad video on Boxing Day (AUS). So recently I thought I lost my flame, couldn’t find him in the tank at all thought maybe the clean up crew got him as he was sort of getting picked on by my yellow tang. However, today I saw the guy inside a piece of rock and got him out but I saw him like this. This fins are almost gone and he is always facing up towards the water surface I don’t think it’s a lack of O2 as my other fish was fine. His sides are bulging out so I’m not sure what it is... an internal parasite?
Other fish are completely fine great colours and are very active coral are very healthy too... not sure what it is any help will be greatly appreciated... also is he a goner? If so do I just leave him or place him in the freezer (heard this way was a humane way to euthanise fish?) thanks all... sad days.
