So I got this new guy, no big problems so far.

But in the last days, I saw it scratching (not often) and flashing here and there. I dont see any bumps in the skin or any spots of any color.

I also noticed this in the lower part of the body (see pic)

Its in QT tank (30 gallons), the tank is being medicated with cupramine and prazipro atm. There is also a blue tang, a leopard wrasse and a diamon goby. None are presenting any signs of trouble.

Any help is appreciated.

For some reason I cannot see the pic. IME, PB and Hippo are 2 tangs that gets stressed out easily.

They dont seem to be suffering or stressed. They are eating, swimming, etc. Im not really worried at the moment.

The problem seemed to go away. I couldnt see any of those "parasites?" hanging anymore.

All I see now its just a little damage in the fins, I will be monitoring the situation.

Can someone else confirm that the pic is not visible?

Thanks !

Make sure to do another round or 2 of prazi to treat for any eggs. it was probably some kind of worms or parasites that was attached to the fish and prazipro took care of but you want to make sure no new ones show up from any eggs.
