Ok, my tank is not doing good at all right now. I first noticed white sand grains on the fish awhile ago. It was on only the sand sleepers. Now I have lost a royal gramma basslet no infections nothing almost perfect in health ( by external view). Here is the problem. My lemonpeel, clown, and wrasse are losing color. The Lemonpeel has aparent nicks in the skin. The clown has blood veins exposed ( still under skin) the clown also has cloudy eyes and is hanging out by the the top of the tank. My lemonpeel is losing appeitite and wrasse only has color loss and nicks in his skin. My blue green chromis is spotless adn eating white stuff floating in teh water. Now this is the strange thing. The white stuff like covers teh fish in the morning ( after the night when lights are off) then go away by noon. I thought it could just be sand seeing how that could be normal. The stress and death is scarring me I love my fish. I used Kick-Ich and still am using the two weeks. I vacuumed the substrate and performed a 25 % water change. I do have a problem with excessive nutriteints adn i have algaes and canbacteria growing liek crazy. My last test showed. Ammonia: 0 Nitirite:0Nitrate:trace pH:8.3 Alk: normal Calcium: 200 ppm
Phospates: 0. Is there a noctural parasite? Excessive Nutrient problem? fungus ? ANYTHING PLEASE HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPERCIATED. Oh yeah 75 gallon
 
Thanks, wow I never heard of that Brooklynella. Well there are two things wrong I have discovered. One it is marine Ich, my mom said no to a quantine and now she regrets that she ignored me. The tang must have brought ich in. Also an overload on cyanobacteria is depelting oxygen. I am going to turn the forum into a new direction. I am going to pick up a hospital tank soon. In the meantime my clown is at the last stage of Ich related stress before death. Sitting at surface, cloudy eyes, and complete loss of coloration in the tail. Is there any safe medication along with Kick-Ich that can give hte clown a little more time til' the ich releases itself to hatch eggs? Also raisign the temp will speed up the lifecycle of Ich and once they are off the fish should I lower the Temperture to slow down the lifecycle at that point? Now is a freshwater dip too dangerous for the clown at this point? Thank you.
