You had your ammonia spike to .25 yesterday i think, that is probably the root of all your problems.
What are your parameters today? Did you do a water change?

What about my dynamite?
According to this link, it's probably stress and 'capillary congestion'.
Scroll down to the yellow tang with the 'red' fins.

Ooooh, gotcha. Now I feel stupid. :sfish:Sorry if I came across abrasive, it wasn't my intention.
Hope that links helps some people. And Amber, my mom is that way. After she saw all the bristleworms, copepods, brittle star legs, and all sorts of other creatures in my tank, she swore off fish tanks for good. :mrgreen:
