uronema

My lights are going out and saw this wound on my chromis? Could it be battle wounds? Been in the tank only a day. I’m not sure if he cut himself or it’s uronema? Sorry if pictures are too blurry. My lights are turning off can’t get any better right now.

I have a newly cycled reef tank, 30 gallons in size, and bought 3 chromis just a week ago. Two died almost instantly with physical symptoms that resemble uronema. I have one still alive, but it also has symptoms now. I'll show pictures. What are my options? I don't have corals or inverts yet...

To make the short and sweet. I am a saltwater newbie. Been doing it for two months now. Stock included two clowns, yellow, watchmen, and pistol, red Cori’s wrasse, some snails and hermits, bangai cardinals…. and then I went to the fish store and got some freaking blue/green chromis. I told the...

Hi all, looking for some advice on this picture attached. Both green chromis last couple days started seeing red spots on them. I did see them being aggressive towards my foxface the other day so not sure if it’s due to the spikes off that or it’s uronema ?? Also if it is uronema, does this...

Just got this guy into QT yesterday from the LFS. Noticed he was having trouble staying upright, moved him into a small isolation box so i could get a better look. Now i see he has a really big sore on his left side by his pectoral fin. He's a bit lethargic and was not difficult at all to catch...

Hi everyone, I have a pair of chromis that have been in copper power at 2.5 for the past 5 days. Knowing that chromis are very susceptible to Uronema, would the disease have shown itself by now, or is it better to start formalin or metro regardless? There is no discoloration on either of the...

I received Melanurus wrasse May 23rd, 8 days ago. The photo above shows the second day after losing some scales. It did not show any symptoms the first day, but overnight it lost scales and now I can see some red sore. It's in qt with scopas, starry blenny, and sixline wrasse I isolated...

I bought this Barlet Anthias a couple of days ago and I noticed now that it looked like he was losing scales in a specific area and came across uronema through this forum. It may be hard to tell from the pictures but at least to me it looks a little bit red like is mentioned with uronema. The...

I recently got 4 green Chromis and a Yellowtail blue damsel. I put them in my invert QT for a week until I get my Fish QT ready to house life. I noticed on 3 of my green Chromis red sores that appear to be Uronema. Medicine is coming in this week but since the sores have appeared I’ve heard they...

These 4 female lyretail anthias were in QT (cuz I got them online). Today I went to do a 100% water change, and I found these 4 dead. I am not sure what killed all of them. The ammonia levels were around .25ppm Nitrite was at zero. 3 of the dead anthias had injuries (as you can see in the...

Saw large growth on clownfish two days ago. Doing 90 minute RRR dips on both clowns for seven days. Does it look like an infection or Uronema?

I have 4 cromis and a few other fish and I need help identifying this outbreak. All the fish are fine except these dang cromis. One got very bad very quickly I think it go hit by a shrimp bullet or cleaner. But the other one has weird markings on it and it’s got no red and doesn’t look like...

I had what I believe to be a vibrio outbreak wipe out most of my tank. I have a microscope on the way so I can confirm that it isn’t uronema. I’ve removed what’s left of the fish. They’ve been in QT for a week, treating with Maracyn 2 + KanaPlex. There’s only three fish remaining out of 18...

Humblefish's quarantine protocol and BRS video on quarantining for Brook & Uronema have rather conflicting advice about prophylactic treatments for brook/uronema. In summary: BRS video Humblefish Food-soaking with metro Second best option in quarantine No (symptomatic infections only)...

I have uronema in my tank, or at least their DNA. The last fish died, so tearing down the tank and sterilizing is not a problem. But there are a few corals, a shrimp, snails and hermits. They can be housed while the DT is being cleaned, but what can I do to ensure there are no parasites on...

Just got 7 dispar anthias at least thats what i think they are the seller didn’t specify the species as they just called it rainbow fish or something. The seller said they were ‘old stock’ so they already ate pellets, i decided to grab them. They are being qted in a 70g now. They all are eating...

Hey guys , I’m looking to see if anyone can help me identify what’s wrong with my green chromis. A little over 2 days ago , I introduced him into my DT without quarantining him (Huge mistake on my end) and all seemed well for the time being, except for some minor clown aggression. This morning...

Hi like in my title, my new green chromis are showing sign of what I have gathered is uronema. I'm currently treating the tank with Rally/Kick Ick "kick ick as I'm also quarantining/pre treating these fish". I also just started treating with Maracyn Oxy to help with the open sores, and added...

Hello all, yesterday I found 4 out of 7 of my fish dead in my reef tank. I have since moved the living to a qt and plan to completely deconstruct my tank and sanatize it. Over night, the chromis originally harboring the uronema is dead with the signature red/brown spot. I do have a few questions...

Most of us believe that quarantining your fish is the best approach to avoid diseases wiping out our entire tank. I think most will agree on that. But ... does it also safe more fish lives overall?

Hello, I picked 3 lyretail anthias yesterday, and they are in QT currently with some copper power (1ppm currently). Yesterday after adding one of them, I noticed this small bruise like mark near the gill, and was thinking maybe it happened with the guy caught the fish in the net up against the...

A few weeks back I picked up 10 Green Chromis from an online dealer, always wanted a school of chromis in my tank. Within 4 days from arrival 9 of the 10 had died from what appeared to be Uronema (https://humble.fish/uronema/). QT had been up and running for 6+ months with other fish having gone...

I recently lost all my fish to I believe was brooklynella but I came across this picture the other day from bassleer that shows a strong resemblance to anthias I really hope it's not uronema my female was the only one with the red mark, I have to note that my midas blenny did bully my anthias...

I went through several Pyramid Butterfly fish to figure this out. Watch as I take you through 4 months of working with these fish to figure out a cure. Amazon links to everything I used in the videos is in the youtube comment section.

My yellow tang, that I have had for about 4 years now, is in distress. Red patches appeared on it back in December so I treated it with Seachem Metroplex for about 2-3 weeks and things cleared up. Last week I ran carbon and did a water change thinking it was cured. Today the red patches...
