HELP..something wrong with my pinktail trigger

[pjed99]

He has blotches all over him! He is swimming around but his skin pigment is dull and white. What is wrong and how do i fix him!

Did the lights just come on? Most of my fish lose some of their color when the lights are out. Is there any reason he should be stressed? Any new additions today?

no new additions just corals but I noticed after I put the corals in he has got dull! He is eating fine though!

You just added the corals?
Sometimes after a big change in the environment, my tang would get all blotchy like that. A day later, the fish was back to normal.
Just keep an eye on it, but you may see the same effect whenever you get to messing with the tank.

ok i'll keep an eye out for it thanks guys!

Sounds like he got a little freaked out. Like Moe said, keep an eye on him.

Is he still eating like a pig?
