it's true percula clown. Has not been eating for a couple of days. Always split out mysis shrimps when I feed it. Have tried myxazin for 4 days and seems like it's not improving, in fact the torn area gets bigger.

Hi, the fish had died. The size is about 2.5-3 inch. I was trying to pair it up with another true percula but they fought. I had 2 blue tangs in it too.

What is the size of the other clown? Do take note that when pairing up of clown, pairing up chances is higher if one is half or smaller the size of the bigger one(which is or will be the female). I've tried this 4 times and all 4 times, they paired up after some initial chasing and fighting. I've tried it on True Percular and Golden Strip Maroon(Spin Cheek) and one pair of the TP even breed at least 6 times.
