Clownfish looking bad

[peasmakr18]

I have only been in this hobby for 1 month. I have a clownfish who's fins look like they are rotting. They look horrible, like they where shredded. I am not sure if he was attacked, got stuck in the filter or has some disease. I have hime out of the tank for now. He is also not eating. Any help would be appreciated.

it might be a bacteria problem.

If it is in QT, try melafix and feed a variety of meaty foods soaked in vitamins and garlic.

Fin related problems are often a bacterial problem or sometimes a "conflict" problem with other fish. If its a bacterial problem then you should focus on water quality and improved nutrition (fish's own immune system often will overcome) .. if that doesn't help them QT the fish and use an antibiotic (maracyn 2 should resolve the issue in a qT tank)
