Hi all,

Im fairly new to the hobby,
About 2 months ago i i brought into my tank a Regal Angel which i hadnt quarantined within a few days all of my fish caught the ich parasite and wiped out my whole tank within 4 days.
The only survivors are my six-line wrasse and a lawnmower blenny.
I neglected the tank as i mourned the loss of my fish, thinking the 2 remaining fish would die soon. Well its been about 8 weeks now, (Q1) is it possible they never caught it , (Q2) or do they have a tolerance?

Im now at a crossroad, do i continue not knowing if i still have the parasite , or start my tank from scratch again and build that reef wall ive always wanted ;)

Algae ID?
I just noticed this algae (or is it a coral) growing on this rock, i would assume its algae but ive had quite a few new corals popping up the last few weeks.

Nitrates 0-5ppm
Phosphates 0
Ammonia 0
Nitrites 0

Thank ya from Downunder ;)
 
Put the surviving fish through TTM (see the sticky above) and keep fish out of the tank for 72 days. Corals and inverts are ok in the tank. THat will give any hidden (gill) infestation time to dive for the sandbed and get caught in a filter instead. Anything encysted in the tank will have to try to reproduce within 72 days, but without fish, it will fail and die.
