What is this on my clownfish?

[rozzzna]

My clown has had these semitransparent looking spikes along his face, body and fins for approx 14 days now. Thought it was flukes so I treated with Prazi, but after 14 days it does not look better.

None of the other fish has it - if it were contagious shouldnt some of the other fish show it as well by now?

Does any of you know what it is and how to treat it?

I tried doing a FW for 5 minutes, but nothing came off him.

Is the fish breathing heavy scratching flashing lethargic? From the side does it look like heavy slime coat coming off? I'm thinking possible Brooklynella look at this link. https://www.*********.com/threads/brooklynella.247938/the pics below are clowns with brooklynella

I would try a formalin dip. It looks to be some kind of worm.

I have bought formalin online, however it will take at least a week to get here, maybe 2 weeks. Formalin is not possible to buy in my country.
He looks fine, not lethargic or flashing or anything. I hope he can hang on until the formalin comes.

Are you able to get paraguard in Denmark? That may work as a bath since it’s aldehyde based.
