@domination2580 Have you treated for parasites or flukes yet?

If not, I would FW dip him to check for flukes.

Agreed....I unfortunately have not yet, I started out with copper since I know the enviroment it came from had ich or velvet, they went through a ruby dip then to copper

Ok bout to do the freshwater dip, should I put it in another tank and treat with prazi then start the copper over again on the tang?

I would, yes. Just in case something is environmentally off with that QT.

Both clowns are doing fine. It's just the tang

:/ I'm wondering if that's some internal bleeding injury or something

Well he didn't make it past 2 hours....he passed... ugh....the effort I did to try to keep him going....

Sorry for your loss. If it was an internal infection, those are very difficult to treat.

How would a person go about treating them though? I'd rather try then leave one to die from one...

Food soak an antibiotic like Kanaplex, also using a binder (Seachem Focus) to prevent the med from leaching out. But you have to catch it very early on or it needs to be a mild infection. Once symptoms show through the skin, it is usually too late.

IMO there's really nothing you can do at that point
