Clownfish covered in translucent egg?

[Themilkman248]

ok First time ive ever needed to write in, been running a reef tank for over a year now and currently have a 125 gallon, I noticed today that my corallimorph was extra large and puffed up than usual, slightly later noticed one of my large clownfish upside down dead in what seem to be a see through egg? can anyone tell me if this has happened before?

hmmm would love to get a picture of this?

sounds like the clownfish is rotting, nasty decomposing ball of slime, it should smell nice.

sorry I threw her out too early because I was sure she was dead, my corallimorph was 3X its normal size before I found her floating in what looked like a little capsule, should I be worried about this happening again?

Got a pic of the corallimorph?

Could be than the coral tried to eat the clown and then regurgitated.

yeah that's what I was thinking, but has anyone seen this happen before? and whats the likelihood of this happening to another fish again? will post a pic of it tomorrow

That's what my anthias looked like after being regurgitated from my BTA. In hindsight, the fish wasn't healthy, so I don't blame the nem.

haha figured out what the problem was my morph is a large elephant ear, and their notorious for eating fish that host them, next time needa study my corals bit better before i buy them
