Just turned on whites to check out the fish and noticed some white fuzziness on one of my clowns. The other one has nothing wrong with it. Just curious if it is in fact Brook.

This clown was my cycle fish and never showed any signs of anything until recently after my 1.5 in Kole tang died yesterday (no disease)

I dosed a small amount of prime just Incase there was any ammonia after the tang passed.

Ammonia - 0
Nitrite - 0
Nitrate - 10

Tank has been running for 5 months

Had the same problem this morning it looks like mine but I'm new so wait for someone more expieranced to confirm.
 
Looks like brook to me. I’d remove and treat the fish in metroplex in quarantine.

Agree with Brook.

Metroplex as mentioned above for 10 days per instructions on the bottle should do the trick.
 
Thanks for the help everyone. Sad to say this morning I woke up to him dead on the sandbed looking melted almost..
Heard Brook was a quick killer but I could’ve never imagined that quick.

Now the question is there is one clown left showing no signs, should I pull and treat in qt and let the tank go fallow for a month?

Sorry for your loss :(

Yes I would get the remaining fish into QT + Treatment ASAP.

DT will need to be fallow for 6 weeks to eradicate brook.
