Get wat u mean bro..the other bros here oso mentioned before.But actuali for now all my fishes got spaces liao coz..right in the mid of my tank is a deep hole my jawfish digged for herself,

then my clown is hosting a ric so it aint swimming far away from it and for the rest of the tank my yellow neon is going ard..so actulli theres suffient space for everyone.Js tat i'm stocked max already and i wont be putting anything in anymore.The right side of my Tank can be heighten actualli.but i'm so afraid of doing anything drasatic and bring stress to my jawfish coz my sand is all grade 0 and scare after heighten the rocks might js collapse on poor tigger 1 day =/ so js leave it as it is..

ANyway not much updates from me recently guys coz i'm very happy with wat i have now already Js let the tank mature and settled.

1 Gd news is tat my bleached oxypora actualli gain back its color of red & blue ^_^v a complisment i feel proud of.

[MOssrope]

pics not clear enough for me to tell actually...

hmmm

it does look like some parasite or copepod

[Dispar_Anthias]

If I am not wrong, that a isopod. Remove it ASAP

looks like isopod to me...gd luck bro i'm struggling wif them now bitten twice by them le

[Terryz_]

Yup.. Looks like a Isopod..

[peacemaker]

Gotta get rid of it fast.

[kimkim23]

OMG how to remove it guys?

[peacemaker]

Catch the fish, put it onto a shallow dish with some tank water (enough to keep it breathing but not enough for it to swim, should be lying on its side), and pick the bugger out with a pair of clean tweezers.

Side track... I wonder if anyone has tried this but instead of using tweezers to pry it off, use a syringe and jet spray directly on the isopod with freshwater? I feel getting the isopod to release its grip is less painful than peeling it off the fish. Thoughts?

I think it would work but how much is enough to make the isopod release its grip...
