Convict Tang Discoloration
Any idea why my new Convict tang is showing this much discoloration and seems stressed. He’s been in the quarantine tank since I got him for over 2 weeks. It is being treated with copper and just finished final treatment of Marycn Two. 2 other fish in the same tank purchased at the same time seem fine.
Thanks |

I think is infested with flukes. Use prazi-pro.
To confirm give him a fresh water dip. If translucid stuff falls of is defiantly flukes. Btw how did you get the fish to swim head down? |

To the OP, I'd say to try and get some better photos. Is it only coloration you're concerned with or are there other symptoms? Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk |

Sir with all due respect, I have been doing salt for 25 years. I mentioned a fresh water dip for confirmation. In my opinion ALL new fish shoul have a treatment of de-wormer. Flukes are a type of worms. |
