    My new clownfish has developed a brown spot on his upper lip, and a couple on his right side. He seems happy and fine otherwise. He eats well and is active and all the other fish seem to be in good health. The water parameters are all fine. If anyone could shed some light on this i would be very appreciative. I have started soaking the food in garlic, and have been dosing the tank with vitamin C daily to help their immune systems. I am hesitant to use any kind of chemicals to treat illnesses as this doesnt really happen naturally and I dont like putting a lot of chemicals in with my corals. Anyways, any help would be great.

    I think it would help if you posted a pic of the fish - can you do this?
