White coloration on yellow tang

[Thomas GRANT Quinlan]

Hello, I am seeing this white coloration on my tang. She used to be a beautiful yellow and now has some white blotches. They are not spots, but a coloration of white at different

spots on her body. Also, it looks like her dorsal fins are getting beat up. Any suggestions? You can see it clearly around her face. Thank you in advance.

What are you feeding it? Also check aggression issue.

 

[Thomas GRANT Quinlan]

frozen brine shrimp, frozen reef plankton, Omega One marine flakes with garlic (sometimes) and I just started hanging frozen green marine algae (I just started to introduce this in the tank by using a clip).

She is the queen of the tank and so aggression is not an issue

Could it be stings from that coral?

Feed it nothing but nori, the type that is used to make sushi. It need a lot of seaweed in its diet.

Poor nutrition = poor health. You need to feed much better quality foods. LRS, Rods Foods, NLS pellets, Nori, any type of frozen cubes will help. As for the fins they will most ever likely not grow back.

Thank you, I am feeding it frozen food from local reef shop. I was not feeding her the seaweed, which I did not know she needed. But, I am on top of it now. Thank you again.
