Help!

Reef.Blue · Jan 24, 2022

My clownfish has been acting very weird for the past few days and he is very low on movement and just sitting at the bottom. He is usually very active and swiming around. I have tested the water and everything seems normal. I think he is slowly dying. Please help!

Any exterior signs of disease? White spots, lesions, etc.? Very labored breathing? Will he eat?

How long have you had him?

Can you post a pic in white light? This will help us to see and spots or anything. If you can take a video, post to YouTube, that will be a big help, as we can then see if it is breathing normal or not.

Need pics in white light. You can post it here as attachment.

Can you describe the strange behavior?

Do you have any other fish in the tank? What ones? Are they acting normal and eating?

Did you add anything new recently?

doesnt mean it cannot be brook, ive gotten it after a month or so. Do a FW dip if you find no evidence of it being anything else and see if they improve

I have him in a tank with another clown. He seems better now, I don't know what happened he was in a weird faze for a couple days and I guess it just went away. It is still a little confusing to me. I think there was something wrong with him, but whatever it was I guess it is okay now. Thank you for your help I really appreciate it.
