I haven't had any additions in the tank for 6 months. For a little history, I have had Chromis in the tank previously, last year to be exact. I'm not sure what killed the Chromis. Maybe fighting or possibly the common Uronema? I always QT fish before entry.

I also just lost a 3 year old Salfin Tang about 2 weeks ago, no noticeable damage on him though, found him stuck to my power head.

Now I see this red sore on my 5 year old Snowflake Clown. Is it Uronema? I have a few angry emerald crabs that like to grab fins as the fish swim by, could this be related?

I currently have a black axil chromis that I believe has/had uronema. Here is what it looked like.

If that looks the same as whats on the clownfish, you could take him out and treat with New Life Sciences Ich Shield. It has a type of chloroquine phosphate compound that can kill Uronema. I'm currently treating with it and while the spot hasnt completely gone away, its definitely faded.

Just look up on the product on this site and theres a long post on it and dosage etc.
