Hey guys,
I have a one spot foxface, about 5" big and I've noticed that he has a couple spots on his his body that almost looks like a blackhead. There's like 2 or 3 scattered along each side of his body and then behind one of his gill flaps there's like a cluster of them. Not quite sure what it is. They're not raised, he seems to be acting normal, they're like blackish-brown in color, he's eating fine, cruising around the tank like he normally does, he hasn't itched or done much of anything out of the ordinary. I'm not quite sure if it's something to be concerned with or if that's just his markings. His color is just a little pale but I attribute that to the fact that I just bought a ton of new stuff to add to the tank like a dual chamber reactor, finally got a protein skimmer, hob refugium, and 2 new circulation pumps. And he was loving some flame algae I had in there but I took it out to put in my refugium before he ate it all, so I just figure from the stress of the tank being rocked a little bit and my hands constantly in and out of the tank and having all this new stuff in his environment that he's not used to, plus now theres a constant minor vibration and dull hum that wasn't there before its just got him stressed a little bit (I know I would be). I'll try to get a picture of it so you guys can see what I'm talking about. Please take a look and let me know what you guys think. Thanks! :beer:
