Hi,

Any help is greatly appreciated. I picked up a Scopas Tang from my local LFS about 2-3 weeks ago. He was at the store for about a month before I took him home (eating, swimming, ex...) where he looked great. The first 2 weeks in my tank he was fine, swimming, eating, picking, ex.. But then about a week ago he started hiding and didn't come out. At first I though one of the blue/green Chromis was messing with him so I put the Chromis in the sump. Nothing really changed... Today the Tang finally started coming out and his fins look really bad. Not sure what course of action I should take... ?

Thanks in advance.

Sorry, the picture isn’t clear enough to see any details. The scopas is only n with a chromis, no other fish? Has the scopas been treated for flukes?
