    I bought him and a yellow tang today. Acclimated them both the same way, and introduced them together in the 90
    The tang looks perfect and is eating. .
    The foxface looks as if he is going to die!
    His dorsal fins are fully extended, he has NO color, looks white and gray and he is wedged in-between to rocks!
    please help

    Sounds like a typical foxface. That's part of the foxface game, no worries IME.
