Not really,he dindnt eat again,then yesterday he ate at least 6 pieces of brine shrimp....

I don't see any external signs of disease but the video resolution isn't the best. I'd quarantine and treat with prazi pro. I've seen other fish behave that way and it turns out to be internal parasites. Would be weird though for it to happen so long after acquiring the fish.

Im gonna take your advice,i still see like a little dark brown, what im assuming is poop, at its anus. Will the prazi treatment stress the fish? Not that it makes a difference cause it has to happen.

Is is possible that the new clown is also infected? Might be best to treat both at the same time.

[specvjeff]

It shouldn't stress the fish. Just make sure to do regular water changes to prevent elevated levels of ammonia in a new quarantine tank.

10-4,thanks every one for your input,going to try and get meds tomorrow.my sons bday party at noon so it will happen sun night or monday,i will post status updates as soon as something changes...

[Sgriff]

Prazi pro had no effects...fish died last night,I think it was internal damage,bacterial or fungal,imo. Just cause the symptoms and the way it all started.

Sorry to hear that sucks

When in doubt, do a formalin dip. Knocks out nearly every parasite pretty quickly. Public Aquariums/wholesellers have been doing this for decades.

[Sgriff]

Like i said,i dont think was parasitic. Thnx for all your feedback.
