Hello I'm currently deployed and my wife sent me these pictures of one of my clownfish with large spots on it and is resting at the bottom of the tank alot. Im fairly new to the hobby and would like help so I can help her. She is really worried about killing my tank while I'm here overseas. Any help would be greatly appreciated and relieved. I appologize for the blurry photo it is the best we could get woth our phones.

Good luck with the fish!! Welcome to R2R. Agree with the other comments. I don't know how easy it will be for your wife to set up - a hospital-type tank - but no matter what the problem 'is' - IMHO you will need some kind of treatment, etc - judging by the picture - the sooner the better.

Also another consideration - is that if you have other fish in that tank - they will also need to be treated. If you have time to send another picture - and answer some of the questions above - that will be a big help. Good luck.
