Seahorse problem

[cubin]

Hi

As well as my main tank which i have had for about 2 years now I also have a Nano tank which has been set up for about 4 months and all params are fine. I have a few soft corals which are all thriving and growing well

last week i bought a pair of captive bred seahorses, I think they may now be ill as they seem to be very dosile and reluctant to move around much, they still eat but only reluctanly. One of them has developed a white patch on the upper part of the body. you can see this on the photo (the white patch is on the body level with the eye).

does anyone know if they have some type of disease and if so what i can do about it?

thanks
