Default Re: Tomini Tang....Injury or disease?
Your tang has head and lateral line erosion (HLLE). It is very common with tangs that are suffering from malnutrition, poor water quality, or stray voltage in the tank. HLLE, by itself, won't kill your fish, but it is a sign that your fish is suffering from something so you should make sure that your tang gets plenty of greens and make sure that your water quality is good.
