I just came home from work and found my clown hanging out upside down, he is swimming fine while getting food now and seems quite voracious. He has a tendency to hangout sideways at the top of the water while sleeping at night (ever since he stopped having to hide in the rocks from the female) but recently has been doing it during the day too, and the being upside down is very new and concerning. He does seem to have a bit of a distended belly too. I am seeing some kinda spots that could be flukes but I want to make sure that sounds right before I traumatize the little guy by dunking him in rodi water.
I haven’t had any new fish, but I do have some new crabby types.
I will not be able to get a good picture of the raised bump spots that make me think flukes but I am attaching a photo of one spot that he has a few of- I can’t tell if these are just weird scales or not. They get kinda see through through the light around it but flash as he is moving, otherwise the look dark like single dark pigmented scales. Its the spot that is on the left side of the belly band.
