my pair of tank bred percula clowns in my 4" reef seem to have become ill. they seem rather lethargic (though not as lethargic as i would expect), they have rapid resperation and seem to have lost their appetite. there are no physical signs of stress or parasites on the body, and no discolouration. the last thing i added was a pair of tank bred bangaii cardinals about 2 weeks ago, that came from a system that hadnt held clowns in many many months. all other fish in the tank seem fine.
am i just worrying over nothing, or is something going wrong here? just to make sure, i did a 25% water change last night, and added some prime to clear up any nasty stuff that may have been in the water (but Nitrite, ammonia and nitrate are all at 0 when i test)
if something is wrong, what treatment would be the best course of action? these fish are very special to me as they were bred and raised by my boss who gave them to me as a gift. they were the first fish i got for my tank, and i am very attached to them.
