So my clownfish has got a few very small spots on him. He's got one on the base of his tail and some on his gills. He doesn't scratch or act weird or anything. I'm not sure what it is. Anything would help. Thanks!
 
It's hard to get a picture oh him. I've had him for about a month and there haven't been any new additions except for a coral about two weeks ago.
 
is he eating? I'd watch him closely if he's swimming and eating ok. Sometimes fish get weird things that pop up and given a varied diet, get better. I guess ich could show up after 4 weeks....most importantly don't get too panicked and start doing a bunch of things.
 
Yeah I mean he seems fine to me. He doesn't act any differently than before. Could it be a scar from the larger fish picking on him?
 
do yourself a favor and get a quarintine tank, that wa the biggest problem I had, I lost all of my stock, trust me I regret it

You'd see the fish picking on him and even then he'd have missing or torn fins at some point. White spots is most likely ich. They don't have to scratch at all till it's unbearable for them and then it's most likely to late for treatment (for some fish) and more than 1 fish will have ich at this time, that's what I call an outbreak of ich and will have to leave your tank fishless for about 72 days
 
I see him being picked on my the other fish and he has a torn pectoral fin so I don't know what to think
