ClownFish Shedding Slime?

Twz · #1 01/10/2008, 09:53 PM

Today i'v gotten home to notice my two clowns doing good the day before
and now there hiding in the corner together and it looks as if there loosing a layer of white slime
and they seem to be breathing quickly
They havnt been fed in a week (i feed them about once every two days and all the fish stores seem to be outta food for em
will they be okay?
untell tomorrow?
All levels are okay
And my heater screwed up a few days before so there were some pretty wicked temp changes.

Yeah, it sounds like brook to me. How long have the clowns been in the tank? Did you QT first? Get them to a QT and read up on Brooklynella a.k.a. Clownfish Disease.
