Last night I found Yellow Tang (3 inch and was qt,d before intro to DT 9 months ago) with the skin coming off his face. Now the area is red. He was bobbing
around and seemed disoriented. Right side pectoral fin is rotting. Both eyes seem to be slightly popped. I removed him to a hospital tank and added Kanaplex. I have added a picture(poor one). He was eating yesterday but his poop looked like he may have also ingested sand.
125 gallon mixed reef. Dosing vinegar and kalk for top off with RO water
Phos and nitrate are good and I have been dosing Nitrate
Temp 80.2
Salinity 1.024
Ph 8.4
Ammonia 0
Dkh 9
I have recently changed lighting from LED to T5. All other fish seem fine.
2 Maroon clowns and gbta
purple fire fish
sailfin tang
coral beauty ...
and I suspect this bully may have nipped his fins a bit, very minor.
Am I giving the right treatment?
Any help appreciated, I need to save this fish.
