Hi my tang seems to have the starting symptoms of lateral line and i would like to know how it can be helped. I feed him a variety of frozen foods like frozen brine shrimp, mysis, krill, and marine diet including nori like 4-5 times a day so i try to keep him fat which he is. It's not bad but i would like to know how to help it and how is it caused?

check out the three-part article on the disease. This may be of some help.

Try Selcon, I soak New Life Spectrum pellets in it and feed it to the fish. Selcon contains highly unsaturated OMEGA 3 fatty acids, which will help with HLLE.
