Clownfish getting bitten on tail

1. Isolate the injured fish.
2. Rearrange structures.
3. Release all fishes back together at the same time.
4. Locate fishes that are biting it.
5. Use corrective behaviour on them. Use water to spray them like how you teach a dog or bite their tail back each time they bites the clown fish.

After few attempts, they will learn.
If it doesn’t work, isolate fishes that bullies and put a big puffed fish or carnivorous fish with it.
After few days, problem will be solved and no fish will be left to bully it.
Put carnivore fish up for adoption in forum once completed.

I'm not sure but it looks like a deep bite mark. Just scared hit might get fin rot or something.

If u got QT tank u can catch out and use kanaplex to treat him. The wound will heal fast. Else u can soak the kanaplex with pellet and feed him.

If u want to leave it and let him heal itself also can but just prepare to do methylene blue bath if u see any bacteria infection.

This one also can. Catch at night, off all ur light and just enough for u to see him.

Clownfish very easy to catch one.
Didn't let me catch it up last night also. Saw it breathing heavily then dead in the morning just beside my coral banded shrimp. Not sure if he died by illness or got eaten because its just his eye balls is sticking out.
