Hey gang need some help. You CS has some sort of skin problem. To best describe it i would say he has "Lepracy." He is still shedding like any nomal snapper would but has started to get big patches of skin come off of his head and feet. There is one on his cheek that looks like its down to the bone and his feet looks like someone in a bad Bloody nuckels fight. IF any one has had this problem or can sugest treatment let me know. Thanks alot.

It sounds like some kind of bacterial infection or fungal growth. Maybe a combination of the two. Take him to a vet. Also try to get some Sulfa dip/bath from the pet store.
