Question
hello my naked clown fish seems to be sick. It has has been panting, staying in one spot of the tank and its right pectoral fin is against its body. what do i do?

Answer
Hello Kerrick,

Sorry to hear about your naked clown not doing well.

Can you please tell me a little bit about your system?  How old is your system?? How many and what type of other fish/critters do you have??  What type of filtration?  What type of lighting?  What or how many 'power heads'?  What type of skimmer, (if any)  etc...

Also, if you can, please tell me the test results for pH, and SG/salinity and Temperature...

If you want, you can log onto my new forum at www.thelittleocean.com  and share that info with me and others on that forum.. .that way you will get support/help from many other reefkeeprs without having to target/discuss with just me or just ONE person...

'One post to everyone, so anyone can reply'

Good luck, and i hope to hear from you soon..???


Bill
