Lethargic Clown

[Antsh]

Hi all,

 

My occelaris has been acting strange for about two days now. He's been lying on/near the sand and has rapid gill movement. I've done some research and I'm confused because he doesn't match all the symptoms of some clownfish diseases. I haven't notice any discoloration, sores, redness, or mucuous. I have noticed that my black occelaris seems to be picking on him more than usual. The larger, black clown will push the small (sick?) clown around with his nose, but there is no biting.

 

He also still seems interested in food, which I guess is a good sign.

 

Do you guys think this could be a disease, or just stress from being picked on?

 

Thanks

Yes, my weekly change was on Sunday.
