 Need Help: Kole Tang, Mouth Fungus? I recently moved our Kole Tang from QT into the Display Tank. He was in QT for 4 weeks and doing great. Tonight I noticed his mouth looked very swollen. He appeared to be acclimating beautifully in the tank and eating, but for the past two days has seemed melancholy. He was introduced about a week ago. Other inhabitants include a Hippo Tang, 2 Banggaii, 2 Firefish, 1 damsel, skunk shrimp, and blood shrimp. Everyone else appears to be fine. Looking for advice!

| Re: Need Help: Kole Tang, Mouth Fungus? I remeber my kole tang being very shy. Maybe he just needs some more time to get used to the tank and the other fish. |

| Re: Need Help: Kole Tang, Mouth Fungus? Thanks JeackedupSOB. A quick update: Kole Tang seems to be doing much better...his mouth appears a lot less inflamed. I believe it may have been stress and/or him nibbing at one of two aiptasia (that I need to get rid of). Now onto the next mystery...I have managed to lose a blood shrimp and firefish all at once! They have mysteriously disappeared and it is driving me nuts. I have looked everywhere! I guess I will just continue taking 1 step back for every 2 steps forward.

| Re: Need Help: Kole Tang, Mouth Fungus? It would seem to me that maybe the kole has found a tasty snack?....

| Re: Need Help: Kole Tang, Mouth Fungus? One could conclude that, but I find it hard to believe that a 3" Kole Tang would devour a large Bloodshrimp and a large Firefish? hmmm.
