Shedding skin on a clown?

[ATX aquarist]

My clown seems to have some sort of disease. She is living in a bio cube with a male and she seems to be shedding some white stuff, like dead skin after a sun burn. Heres a picture. Any one know what this is?

Your clown looks like it has a case of Brooke. (Brooklynella)

I would treat him with a series Formalin dips.

You will need to QT her and you should not wait to do it.

There is a sticky at the top that has some info on brooke.

This protoza can be the demise of a fish.

Oye, unfortunately I'm heading out of town tomorrow morning and don't have time to treat my fish. Think she'll last a few days?

Hard to say, brooke can lead to the demise of fish rather quickly..

If possible, I would do one treatment tomorrow then when you get back.. do another..

Best,
