Please, help my clowns!!!

[sanechka2005]

Ive got two clowns and they are in my QT. One of the fish has 2 white spots on her body and it seems that one of her stripes peels off, not completely of course.looks likes a mucus or something. Also, when the close to each other they are shaking. ( looks like somebody tickles the fish)Also, that fish doesnt use pelvic fins ( it is always close to the body)
I have
1) Mardel medication for ich, velvet and other external parasites
2) Maracyn Plus Antibacteria for mouth fungus, popeys, dropsy,and ulcers
3) Erythromycin ( fin and tail rot, open red sores, hemorrhagic septicemia, bacterial grill disease)
4) Cooper medication

What should I use? Or should I buy something else?

My clown had clownfish disease and all I did was a 4 minute fresh water dip and it went away. No medication added. But there is a bonus adding medication. I got Lucky I guess

TapTalk....bleh!

The tickling is what I call the 'seizure dance'. They are determining who wil be dominant over the othe. The dominant one will grow bigger and be a female and you will have a happy couple eventually. Mine does the seizure dance all the time and my lyre tail mollie gets in with the dance too some times haha! Good luck and I am sure they will be fine. Also when you do a freshwater dip use methelyn blue (sp?). It doesnt do anything for ich but oxygenate the water very well so it will be much easier for the fish to breathe(thus you can leave them in the dip longer). Do watch for signs of stress such as rapid swimming and darting and remove them promptly and place back into the QT tank.

Sounds like brooke. Read this article and follow the directions carefully. If you have a picture, I can try to ID it for you.
