    Question Maroon Clown Help

    hey ive got a maroon clown, and on her head she has a perfect circle between her eyes, thats lighter than the rest of her. none of the other fish are showing any signs of anything like that on their heads. she's still eating and swimming normal. we have a 55 gal., she has her own bta, water params are: ph 8.2, alk 9.6dkh, cal 420, nitrate 0, nitrite 0, amonia 0, salitnity is 1.025, temp is 77.0. think i covered all those basics, oh we did a 13 gallon water change on the 17. we also have a blue morph tang, naso tang, foxface, and a lawnmower blenny. t(i know sounds like a lot, but will soon be transfering to 90 gal.). ive also got crabs, snails, and some corals. any help would be appreciated. thanks

    hey jiggly,
    If I had to bet on it there is a pathogen that would more than likely not be an issue if the tank didnt have such a bio-load. Keep your skimmer/filters real clean and if once you do the move you might want to do a dip on the clown (if it has gotten worse) and/or possibly getting a cleaner shrimp (skunk not CB) so it will aid in parasitic problems. Make your feedings much smaller but do a couple more than usual
