That does make total sense to me. At this point because everything went to normal as soon as I did the fresh water dip and placed in the QT tank I won't know if that was the case. In all honesty the fish looked like it had the tiny spots that are on the cord for my temp. gauge. I don't know what these spots are though. They don't move around or anything. My urchin attached himself to the back wall of my tank and went to cleaning these spots and I would say that more than half are gone now. I received my BTA yesterday and he is just beautiful. I figured that I would give it another two days and then try to reintroduce her. I think that if she does decide to host to either the frogspawn or the BTA then if they are just pods landing on her to annoy that will stop.

I've watched her in QT to make sure that there is nothing on her. Fins and body are completely healthy and she looks great considering what I have put her through. I am hoping to get this all figured out. Thanks for your help. I'm at least getting sleep not worrying that I stuck her in a tank of parasitic animals to devour her. By the way, how long does it take for pods to grow? They are getting bigger to the point that I can tell body shape and which ones they are but most are still free swimming. Maybe I should wait until this settles? The thing is I know the BTA will do better if a clown does host to it although not neccessary.

Thanks again. Your knowledge has helped tremendously.
