hi guys,

I bought recently (4 days ago) a picasso clownfish, but on last two days something strange is happening.

he is barely eating and still all time swimming at tank corner, as you can see on this video:

anyone knows what's happening?
I have some medications (bifuran, furan2, prazipro, cupramine) but I don't have idea if this is some kind of disease.

thank you very much for any help.
 
It looks stressed to me. Is your clown in quarantine with a powder blue tang? I have a feeling the tang is bullying the clown and the latter is scared of eating now.

yes, he is in quarantine with the powder blue tang.

I didn't see any stress for food between the fishes (and I spent some hours looking close).

actually, powder blue stay all time on the right and clown on the left.
 
hi guys!

I think you were right.

the fish is eating better (not so much, but better) and looks fine

anyway, I will keep my eyes open.

thank you very much.
