Black dot on Clownfish - has it on both sides, almost mirrored like

[SonRK]

Hey guys

Just noticed my (Male) Clownfish seems to have gain this new black dot on his body over the past 2 weeks.

I attended the Brooklyn Frag Swap where I added new swaps, AFTER being dipped into Coral RX. I know in an ideal situation I should have a QT setup for corals, but unfortunately I (didn't) have sufficient lighting for corals to go in my 10g QT.

Anyways, this little guy seems to have gained a new black dot on his body. He has another on the OTHER side of his body as well. So it almost makes me want to believe that it's just part of his genetic make up and maybe I just noticed it recently? No change in eating habits and whatnot, still comes out running to the top of the tank when I walk by because he think it's food time, etc.

Unless it's like a long black worm (black ich?) that perfectly is going through him like a skewer @_@


-edit - I meant to put this in Fish Disease / Treatment. Sorry! Please move

I usually associate black spot on clownfish with coral and/or anemone stings.

Yea I typically wouldn't flip out or anything, but there's like no corals for him to brush up against. I do have a torch coral (really the only thing that could possibly sting him), but it's so small and on the opposite side of his hang out spot.

I guess the symmetry between the 2 black dots (he has them on both sides of his body) is what should make me not worry.

Random color development? I wouldn't be concerned.
