The snapper is a juvenile red emperor(Lutjanus Sebae), it will eventually outgrow your tank as they get to quite big sizes.

Some information on the fish:

Default Update and new additions

Hi, due to whitespots outbreak recently, some of my fish uplorry d . They include: butterfly, parrot, powderblue tang, blueface angel and 4 banners... in the end since I couldn't treat them with alternative medication I had to transfer all corals (into my coral tank) and half-dose with Copper before more uplorry. Manage to cure all inhabitants. LR could still be alive cos I still see some pods and pistols are still clicking... my boxer shrimp survive . Have just added a blue ring angel and majestic angel to replace my blueface....

Default Hi...

Hi bro...

Maybe u can intro garlic juice into your chopped MP.
Or u can also reduce the Salinty of the water, less than the range.
Lesser Salinty, will also help to reduce the white spot.

Following reasons:
1) Their appetitie will increased.
2) Boost up their immune system.
With a good and healthy system, the fishes will not tend to fall sick easily.
Feed them alternate days.

Hope my liitle comments can help u...
Cheers.

Trying to feed only garlic enriched pellets (Formula 2 (s) and Spectrum Thera (m)). Unlikely to feed MP cause LFS did give opinion that it induces whitespots. All fish feed on pellets now except the sweetlips (mysis shrimp for now). Yes, have also been adviced to reduce salinity as it helps to reduce whitespots.. thanks for confirming this bro...

Default hi

Whitespot can be treated,i aways do this. When intro new fish into tank put the fish in tap water n let it stay 20-30sec(look like going to die) then faster put the fish into ur tank, can try. Any also use garlic dry food to feed them or use DIY fresh garic juice mix with prawn/fish meat to feed them(using fresh diet give them gd colour)
