Default Is it ich?
Hi, my tank is more than two months old now...i added a sailfin tang aftr a months cycling... He seems to be doing fine so far... But a week later ie two days ago i added an indian clown... Today i noticed the clown was brushing itself against rocks n tank walls... Both fish are eating well n r quite active... Do u think the clown has any ich or something... Or is it just part of its behavior...

how big is your tank? and unless you see the ich cysts it is probably just scratching itself. you will know when you see the cysts.

If you start seeing any white dots or something like that your clown might just be itchy...I would watch him though. Maybe add some garlic supp to their food. You can usually find it in the LFS.
