spot on clowns eye

[fishguyxd]

One of my clowns has a white spot on his right eye ,none of the other fish have this. any ideas the water is ok just a bit high on salitity. Now I just seen the yellow tang nipping at the clown?????? this is weird.

Don't know what the spot could be. Maybe an injury from the YT? YT may be acting up due to the new tang in the tank.

Don't know the current size of your two tangs, but if they are in a 72g, they'll be needing a larger tank at some point.

the clown today has lost most the spot and is swimming and eating well still acting a little werid but i be on the watch.

Well the clowns were playing around the tank and then the next morning there was only one and i can't find the other ,Now I only have one there suppose to be kept in pairs correct? well when I do get more later what type should I get ,which type is more likely to host the ones i had never even went close to hosting anything.

Al,

What kind of clowns do you have? What do they have to host in? How big is your tank?

Clowns can be kept singly, or in pairs, ime. Though, I always buy mine in pairs so they get the aggression thing out of the way pretty quickly and with less fuss than if I introduce one later. However, if you have to introduce a new clown, make sure it is much smaller, or at least smaller, than the one currently in your tank.

Your clown may be lost somewhere in your tank. Do you have overflows or a sump? Could be in there. Could be on the floor, though I hope not. Could be hiding behind the rock structure in a cave, like my ocellaris sometimes do.

What kind of predator inverts do you have, such as a sally lightfoot crab, large brittle stars, etc.?

I bought two at BA when i first started so i thing they were ocellaris ?? it was acting werid for a few days prior in the rock resting in the creveses and nooks and crannys , and no preds to take it out, so not sure the remaining one does not even go looking for it's freind anymore.So just looking what I should get. I torch ,xenia ,anomone fuzzy mushrooms,frogspawn etc small frags.
