Disappearing ich???

[rwrink]

I have a new flame angle in a 72 gal fowlr. The following day it showed the first signs of ich but upon inspection 8 hours later it was gone only to reappear the next morning.

All other fish are healthy as usual.

Any thoughts?

Ammonia 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 8 ppm
SG 1.024

Tank 3 years old

Clown fish
Royal Gramma
Flame Angle
Yellow Tang

since it is a parasite it is possible for it to move, and/or die and get replaced. you should have qt and should always qt ich sucks so bad! I would treat tank with copper or an organic treatment

Thats what happens when a fish has ich, the ich goes in cycles so there will be times where no ich can be seen.
