I still suspect clowns and one of them may need to go as this aggression may continue after fish heals
I got a better picture of him in the isolation box. Do you see any size of disease? I put some food in the box but he doesn't seem interested.

There is a real risk that the clown will be aggressive again. If you rearrange the rocks you do level the playing field a bit but I'm worried the little goby will be abused again.

Any chance of getting a much bigger tank on black friday? :)
I got some better pictures. Do you see any signs of disease or anything?

Fish is thin but looks ok. If its not eating at all, may be feeding off its liver which not uncommon but also not good outcome

I don't see any signs of disease. If he starts eating I bet he'll be fine. I think he was just getting bullied.
He has started eating and seems to be doing better. I still have him in the acclimation box. Is that OK? Or do I need to move him to a hospital tank?
