Its been another week and there has been no change good or bad. Although the white spots look like whiteheads, I haven't been able to quarantine Iv seen no change besides the fact that it hides much more during feeding time, although that Iv noticed in both of them they used to come to top of the tank and almost hand feed now they both hide in anemone most of the time only venturing out briefily to grab a flake thats passing by. Does anyone know how long it takes to generally kill a fish if it did have what was previously mentioned for a diagnosis.

Wonder if it could be stress? I had a tunez fan exposed to air for a long period of time while i was working which was incredibly loud and when I discovered it that same fish was PURE white and totaly spooked.

Once they adopt an anemone, they bearely leave it. Mine eat very little and very rarely come out of their nem to eat.

After one week if they don't feel any worse, then it is not velvet, nor brook as these are fast killers. They will probably be just fine.

My male especially eats practically nothing. I always wonder how he manages to survive but he's been doing great and growing well for a year now.
