What’s on my clownfish?!?! This appeared over night I did a 1 minute freshwater dip but nothing changed.

That looks like some kind of hitchhiker or maybe flatworm hitching a ride on your clown! Freshwater dips can help but sometimes those little guys are stubborn. Keep an eye on it and maybe try a longer dip or a coral-safe treatment if it starts spreading. Your clown looks cozy though!

Could be bacterial/fungal or just a scrape. I’d monitor for a few days to see if it grows or goes away. I treated something similar with kanaplex

That spot looks a bit like a small abrasion or maybe some kind of slime buildup. Freshwater dips are usually solid first steps so just keep an eye on your clown and maybe try a longer dip if it doesn’t improve!
