Hello,
Sorry for not having a picture, but I'll try to give a very detailed description. Basically my newly acquired naso tang has several scattered pale 2-4mm blotches (hypopigmented macules) on her body. No surface changes (like ich), nothing on the fins, eyes, or gills, continues to eat well, all other fish fine. From my research it appears that it may be a stress response/mucous membrane injury but naturally I'm concerned about parasites. What truly escalated my worries was that these blotches appear to be increasing in numbers. Any insight would be appreciated!
