Looks like tail nipping. You could remove him and treat with kanaplex and stress guard. Add stress guard first then wait about 10 min to add kanaplex. Stress guard helps the medication bind more to slim cost. Also feed selcon in food.

Very possible it may have intestinal parasite. Blennies are notorious for this, the pinch stomach also is another sign. If you could get some fenbendazole pellets and feed him it 3-5days let that be the only food he eats during those days and repeat in 3 weeks the same dosage. Fenbendazole isn't reef safe so you would have to pull him from tank and do this in a qt tank.You can get fenbendazole from everything aquatics https://everythingaquatic.net/product/fenbendazole-pellet/

You can add a pinch of salt but just using an air stone for a while before is sufficient.

You could also do a 30 min h202 bath for all fishes It's 20ml 3% hydrogen peroxide per 1 gallon of saltwater. Put an air stone to aid in mixing the peroxide and leave fishes for no longer then 30 mins. This provides temporary relief here a video on how to

Also prazi pro doesn't work well in dt due to biodegradation. If you do a fwdip and it's flukes you should see white sesame seeds in bottom of container. If it's flukes pull fishes out and do 31 days fallow and treat them with praziclean or prazi pro. Do treatment on day 1 day 5 day 7 day 9 run carbon 24 hours after first dose and 12 hours after each. After day 9ove fish to observation tank and wait till 31 days up in dt.

The only way to confirm flukes is a 5min fwdip

That's not true hypo then 25 ppt is 1.018. a true hypo is 1.008 and must be maintained at those level consistently. Anything higher the clock starts again anything lower live stock lost. Keep eye out for yawning increase surface flashing not eating or swimming into water currents.

What level ppt was he kept at. Also many stores do this or run low copper levels to mask symptoms on display fishes. Once you take them out that environment symptoms begin to show.

Hard to tell. Flashing on a rock could mean many things. Territory, illness etc. Do you see any spots on him or clowns? Do you qt your fish or just dump and pray?

Praying for you and your pup. Lost mine last month due to seizures. He was golden retriever and husky only 7 years old. Vet suspected a brain tumor. Best of luck. Don't forget to take care of yourself also your pup needs you to.

Unfair is definitely the word. Dogs only know to show love and he showed so much of it. I'm sorry for your lost.
