URGENT!!!What is this on my new clowns?

[jmadison]

Had them for 3 days, hosting the anemone after 2nd day. Could this be a reaction to sucking on tenticles and rubbing ect? or is it.... ich? Working on removing a sixline that has been a bit too curious but in the safety fo the nem they are fine from the 6line.

bump for morning crew

Nems can cause blistering skin/scales on the fish.

Those look more like cuts from fighting something.

Also, it's mouth is open. The clowns main defense is to bite bitE BITE!

6 Lines, are very aggressive. Looks like you may have an incompatability issue.

Forgot to ask, are any of the fins damaged in anyway?

 

[jmadison]

Waxy thanks for the response-
I do inded believe now that this is some scratchign from some dominance sparing between the two clowns. Still figuring out mommy daddy roles. The white is mostly gone now today when the lights came on! Just a bit of "wear" marks on their noses, but all appears well. Acting/breathing normal. I'm working on removing the 6line STILL, but its gonna be a PITA as i already know.

 

[jmadison]

Oh and no there arent really any tattered fins at all, maybe one tiny one in one of the clowns, but no chunks or major tears.

Thanks AGAIN!

No problem, looks like you have a lot of work to do!

It's a good thing your tank is only 29 gallons!

Try a 300g and remove a 6line haha.

 

[jmadison]

Purchasing a 120 this week hopefully, will be quite cautious about my fish aditions! Thanks again!

 

[waxy]

Haha totally!

Be careful about what you add. 120 is a huge tank!

Plenty of room for mistakes. You probably won't have to worry about those clowns fighting if you got plenty of nems sitting around
