Hello,

My brother just got a clownfish from an online vendor that seems to have weird markings and spots. Any idea what it is? It was a pre quarantined fish…

Would watch it - of course the natural comment would be to say brook - but I don't see that. I would put it through the recommended quarantine time.

Looking at the pictures - think I see what you mean - but nothing diagnostic.

I’m seeing secondary lesions associated with brooklynella
Is fish breathing normal or labored?
Any loss of appetite?
Unusual behavior?
Can you provide clearer pic under white lighting?

Breathing seems normal.
Fish hasn’t eaten but it just arrived today. It wouldn’t look at food.
Swimming slowly.

Do you mean the marks on the white stripes? Those may just be minor bruises.
Can you post a short video of the fish in the tank? I can sometimes tell more from seeing a moving fish.

What should I do with it? It’s at my brothers place and he only has a small nano.
Sorry- been flying today.
Ruby rally Pro would be a good addition to tank along with added aeration via air stone.
