Clownfish fading color!

[BlueOnTwo]

I bought 2 clownfish a couple months ago, a larger and a smaller one. They were doing fine but the male disappeared when I got back from vacation. The female started to start fading and im not sure why. My parameters are good; nothing changed.

Will it get its color back? I am planning to replace it with another pair of clowns. My LFS has 2 types of false percs - one is tank raised (more expensive) and the other isnt...? Which type of clown should I look for?

its a clownish disease that kills the clownish pretty quickly, that or amyloodinium. Either way the fish has small percentage of surviving. Assuming he is still alive, if you can i would do a fresh water dip for 5min more if he seems to take it well. Make sure to acclimate the freshwater to same temp, ph as your tank.

He will die if he doesn't get a FW dip or treatment, so it is better to FW dip him and take a chance then to just let him die.

Thanks I will try that. How do you match the pH of the tank to the FW?
