Well my clown tang has recently been developing dark spots on him, mostly on the upper side of his body. I am wondering if its just a lighting condition because if i try to take a picture of them they dont show up on the picture. I am wondering what this could be and what i should do about it. I am thinking right now maybe its just dead skin as i dont have any cleaner shrimp right now they are hard to find up here. I am about to do an order from DrFosters just to get some cleaner shrimp at a decent price but dont know if it will help. My water all tests good and its not like he doesnt have enuf swimming room. He eats well and i have been giving him nori and brine shrimp. After i brought him home his color greatly improved, but now these spots are developing and i want to stop them if possible. Im going to try and insert a picture and see what happens.

Thanks for any ideas, this is one of the best clowns i have seen and i want to keep him that way.
