Hi! We have a mature clownfish in an established reef tank (5+ years?). All of a sudden, one of our clowns has stopped eating, though he acts hungry, is swimming normally, but either will not eat, or spits up anything he does put in his mouth.

Nothing new has been introduced to the tank and the food has not changed. We are going on day three of him refusing to eat; we’ve tried Reef Frenzy, Rod’s, pellets, flakes, etc., and nothing.

All other fish and corals are acting normal and eating, including the clown mate. The salinity may have been a tad high at the water change, but that has since been reduced.

Any ideas?
