w123 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Hi you guys, I bought a purple firefish about and week ago and he looks a little off 1. I have been feeding him frozen brine 2x a day since I got him and he eats like a champ but he all of a sudden looks starved and he has these wierd protrusions that look like ribs (Picked up some mysis today for him) 2. He seems to have two maybe three small translucent looking white specks on his head 3. He used to swim around the tank all day but recently is hiding most of the day Anyone have an idea whats going on with him? Parasite? Disease? Link to comment

trunglippo Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 How long has your tank been up and running? Link to comment
w123 Posted March 19, 2015 Author Share Posted March 19, 2015 I think I figured out whats going on with him. I did a bit more research and found this thread. http://www.greateriowareefsociety.org/Forums/tabid/78/aft/32991/Default.aspx And he has the exact same symptoms. I dosed some prazipro. Im hoping for the best Link to comment
