To start, I bought a juvenile Purple Tang Sunday evening. It had an appetite when I bought it and still does which is good.
However, I've noticed a whitish line going across its body and also Some white discoloration on its head above its eyes and above its mouth, which I'm concerned may be HLLE.
#1 How long does HLLE take to show up? Is it possible the Tang already had it when I purchased it from the store?
#2 If it is HLLE would it be appropriate to ask for a partial refund? I've never purchased such an expensive fish so the idea of it dying because of something that could be pre existing bothers me.
Here's a pic, you'll have to view it full size or zoom in to see. She's still a bit shy so hard to get a close up pic.
