Hi,
i need a consultation.
Is this ick?
There are 5 fish in my 30g cube, the fish in question is a clownfish which I added first about 4 weeks ago.
It has this one white spot on his nose other than that he acts perfectly healthy, and no other fish show any signs of illness.
I'm not sure because I added a diamond goby last, so there has been a bit of sand floating around in the tank.
I did not quarantine any of the fish because I am a total newbie,
and was hoping for some beginners luck ;-)
But now I already ordered two 15g tanks to have a hospital tank / TTM setup option in the future.
Questions from the sticky:
1. How old is this aquarium?
6 weeks
2. If less than six months old, what is ammonia level?
0
3. What is SG of this aquarium? How measured?
1.026, Digital Refractometer
4. When was the last fish added to this aquarium?
5 days ago
5. Was it quarantined?
No
6. If you are using a copper based medication, which one?
No
7. If you are using hyposalinity, how did you calibrate your refractometer?
No
8. Please describe in detail, the appearance of the fish? If there is one or more pimples, are they lumpy? What color?
pictures attached
9. Please describe the behavior of the fish as best you can. Is it acting reclusive? Is it always up towards the top of the aquarium? Is it avoiding light? How active is the fish?
Behaves totally normally
10. Is the fish eating? What?
Very healthy appetite, being feed frozen mysis
