I purchased a Black Volitan Lionfish about 2 weeks back, he is still in the QT tank (my fish sit in QT for a month before transferring them to their main tank). I've noticed a spot that started to form, it looks as if his skin is coming off...I can see the tan where the spots have formed. After 2 days these spots went from the size of barley noticable to the size of quaters...it started on one side and is now on both sides. After some research all I can come up with is Uronema Marinum as what he may be sick with. However I wanted to try and confirm and get the best idea's on treatment for him are.
I've enclosed a 2 pics, these pics are from yesterday, can one tell me what it is and how to treat for it?
(o this lion is an adult, very large).
any help would much appreciated.
