Yep. Jordan is right.

Thanks Ron and Marina!

I have this pair for a little more than year. Both of fishes were about 1" when I've purchased them. Now female is about 3.5" and the male is 2". They've created a pair and I hope will spawn soon

She might benefit from a FWD for 30 min and a course of Maracyn2 at double dose.

Marina,
Sorry I didn't get the last message...

Judging from the photograph I think Marina thinks that your clownfish has some kind of infection (dark patches on the front white stripe). However I don't think anything is wrong and that it is just an incomplete white stripe that are seen on many tank bred clownfish.

FWD = Freshwater Dip, I don't think your clownfish is in need of one.

Thanks Jakealien

Thanks Jakealien

The black spots are for sure not some kind of infection. It's just the pigmentation of white strip as you've told.

Well, now I know one more meaning of FWD
It was allays abbreviation of Forward Deal for me now I know that this one is used not only for finance field

This fish is not captive bred, she does suffer from parasities. Your call.

Marina, you are an expert in clownfish and I am not. However, the fish seem healthy and fat to me. While this does not mean that she does not have internal parasites, FWD will not treat internal parasites.

 

[MarinaP]

She has external, not internal parasities.

 

[Diamandi]

Marina,
Are you talking about the black spots on the 1'st white strip? Those spots are not changing since she was juvenile.
Can it be that the parasite wasn't removed by anemone?

I'm asking all those questions because I prefer not to disturb this pair, they laid eggs or the 1'st time on Friday and I'm afraid such disturbance will interrupt their spawning.

Thanks for your answers
