Did you add any other fish or just the corals. I'm not sure what it is, black ich possibly? I have no idea. Heck, could even be possible stings, but I don't know why he would be messing with an anemone so I doubt it's that. Either way the best solution is to start feeding him garlic soaked foods which will build up his immune system. Any other changes to the tank besides some new coral? ------------- -Ben 90g Mixed reef www.body-balancechiropractic.com |

Welcome to the WMAS. We should be able to help. The pics are just not detailed enough to see what they may be. Any chance for better pics? Where are you located? Maybe someone can come by and help. What are the Alkalinity and Calcium levels in the tank? Usually anemone stings cause white spots. Are you familiar with using Garlic Oil to prevent parasites? ------------- Reefkeeping Tips, & quick, easy setup tricks: www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9244 Pay it forward - become a paid WMAS member
