My clown fish has small pimples on its tails and fins. It's not white, it's the same color as it's fins. I first saw them on its tails, now it's growing on its fins. I went to the LFS, they told me to dip it in fresh water for 5 minutes. Is this true? Will it kill it? (I try to take a pic, but you won't see it, as the pimples are so small)
Note that the clown fish has been in my tank for 2 weeks. It's been in the LFS for at least a few weeks before I bought it. It was the last 2 out of a bunch of them. It looks health so I didn't bother put it in a QT.
My tank:
20 gallons, 2.5 months cycled, sand bed, live rocks
1 clown fish, 2 anemones, 1 colt coral,
0 ammonia, 0 nitrate (recently tested, I didn't re-test the nitrite as it always 0 in my tank since it's first cycled).
There are a few aiptasia anemones (very small, about 5 mm), I killed some already.
Thanks in advance for any forth coming responses.
