Use your Photobucket account Ray. Image Shack is crap, no offense please if someone likes it, just my personal opinion from working with it the past several months. If someone wants to debate this start a thread I would love to rip on Image Shack for a while.

Have you noticed any weight loss in the fish that could be letting subcutaneous blood vessels stand out ?

The marks have faded and then came back.

Fish appears healthy and has not lost any weight, Kenn.

Behavior of fish is not out of normal. Appetite is good; social behavior is good.

thanx 2 all

It is likely a nutritional issue Ray. While your carnivorous fish are well feed the bulk of a scopas tangs diet should be algae. Try getting some different kinds of NORI to feed it and some macro algae's. (other then cheato)

Forgot to mention algae. Sorry. Red, green, brwn sheets plus cheato. But I was feeding more meat than algae. Now I have swiched to more vegies and less meat.
