sick clown

[o0jmadr0x0o]

i have had the clown for about 2-3 weeks, seemed fine at the store, 4-5 days ago i noticed a laceration on his side, thought he might have just hurt himself or was being bullyed by the other clown (both percs who show no aggression towards each other). now the clown seems to be pealing its skin near the face and gills. situation looks like its getting worst before it gets better. any ideas. hes to quick to take a pic of but i will try with my noob cam skills

[o0jmadr0x0o]

cmon anything, should i at least take him out of the tank?

By all means take him out and put him in a QT. As far as what to medicate him with I would supplement his diet with garlic extract and see where that goes.

Do you have a picture of the sick fish? From the peeling it sounds like Brooklynella.
