| Re: my fish have white heads I am having this same problem with my blue tang. My damsel and clown fish are fine but this has been going on with my blue tang for a few months now. He seems healthy has far as activity and stuff, but has hardly any color less, esp. his black parts, and head. I can post a picture if needed. |

| Re: my fish have white heads My blue tang requires a routine vitamin regiment to keeps it's color. A good diet will help. I change my food regiment around so all my fish are more willing to try other food.
Also, if you run carbon in your tank it will quickly soak up allot of good elements.
