I’ve done much research in attempting to find pictures of a similar parasite and/or disease but haven’t had any success. During the four year period of me owning the system, I’ve never had any fish suffer from any diseases of any kind including Ick so I’m a bit concerned. I’ve attached a photo that was the best I could take. Unfortunately, my Virgate Rabbitfish is very camera friendly and I can’t fixate my camera for more than a couple of seconds before he jumps in front of my focal point. I’d appreciate any insight you may provide in identifying this parasite/disease and thank you for your help. Here’s info on my setup: 72 gallon bowfront with ~130-140lbs of live rock 30 gallon sump 90 gallon Euro-reef skimmer ~15-20% bi-monthly water changes (1) Virgate Rabbitfish (1) Orange Firefish (1) Purple Firefish (1) Blue-green chromis (1) Red Social fairy wrasse (1) Banana wrasse (1) False Percula Clownfish (1) Bi-color blenny (1) African Mi
