Hi Steven - I love your articles, they have been very helpful.

I have a QT tank set up that currently has a large Anthias and Solar Wrasse - they have been in it for 1 1/2 weeks - look great - fat and happy. I have kept an eye on the tank they came from at the LFS, and all of their former tank mates also have shown no sign of problems.

In my DT, my Foxface has changed colors, bottom half yellow, top half black, it also has cloudy eyes. He has been eating and acting fine.
Last night, I was able to catch the Foxface while he was sleeping and put him in the QT tank.

Question - I am adding a sick fish in with 2 healthy fish, should I take the other 2 out and add them to the DT/
What would you suggest for a course of action for my Foxface.

I thank you in advance.

Tom
 
I would leave them all in the quarantine since the anthias and wrasse have not completed a full quarantine period and you could possibly be moving them into an infected display.
