welts on clown fish
I have had a pair of clown fish for about four months. Today I notice some white welts on one of them. I am posting a picture. Does any one know what these welts could be? I added a long tentacle anemone 4 days ago. Could that have anything to do with it?
Here are a couple pics |

That is what I thought at first but I don't belive it is ich. I have had ich on my Tangs before and it doesn't look the same. It looks more like a raised bump and the white looks like it's where the color is gone. It doesn't look like it's something that could fall off. To me it looks like something has stung it, but I am usually have the wrong idea. Anyway it doesn't look like the ich my tangs had........One tang died and one lived...........oh, they are not rubbing theirselfs.

Have patience, please dont run out and start adding chemicals to the tank.... my clowns got the same thing after i added a torch coral and after a fewweeks it went away. If your sure they are not being stresses by any other fishes then i would wait. you can at least try soaking their food in garlic oil...hth

no chance of adding chemicals. If they die maybe I will try feeding them to my brain. Did you see the "My Gramma died a terrible death" post? I am hoping it's not what you think it is. They are the only two fish in that tank. I put in a red star fish in two weeks ago and the the anenome four days ago.
