Re: Is he okay?

I have had my share of clown troubles as well. I recently purchased a pair of perculas. I already have one ocellaris and one smaller percula.

The larger of the new pair won't eat either, however he doesn't seem as stressed as yours. My guess is that your water is significantly different in some respect then what he is used to, and he's not adjusting to it as well as the other one. I'd test your alk as well, and be very wary of adding buffer if your alk is already high.

If you see any cloudiness or sloughing of the skin, I'd highly expect brooklynella, but so far I don't see any symptom of that besides the breathing and not eating.

As for the dog in the background...I'm guessing Lhasa or shih-zu?
