| on your pic on ur other thread it just looks like it is in the process of changing colors. I wouldnt be too worried... Is it's diet good? Even if it is ich it will most likely go away as long as there is no problems with its diet and env... maybe stress of changing...puberty is a b@tch |

| i was thinking(hoping), that was the case, also. he seems to "twitch" a lot, and kinda lay on his side. he seems to be eating, though, but seems to hide out more then usual.
don't really know his age, just got him with that other tank about 2 weeks ago.
he's about 4" |

| Could also be marine velvet (dinoflagelettes). Lost a few fish to that thinking it was ich. The treatment is different then with ich. If its twitching and laying on its side, something is wrong with it. _________ [center]Renaming Our Corals "Believe those who are seeking the truth; doubt those who find it." Andre Gide |
