    my blue line grouper is sick. his color is awful. there are no white spots. his gills look swollen. i've been treating him for 8 days with melafix, and my lobster has been picking at his gills all week. he's rubbing his gills in the sand, and i'm pretty sure i heard him say, FML, this morning. his name is ike, and if he dies, i will be broken hearted. any tips? :cry: i'm a newb, and i have a strong feeling that this is my fault.

    What are your water parameters, please list the actual values?

    How long have you had the fish and what size is the fish and what size tank is it in?

    Welcome to 3reef and sorry to hear of your troubles.
