Ok so I have 2 transfers left in my 72 hour change out on my 12 day tank transfer cycle and I havnt seen any changes. The ich is not dropping off of my fish. My purole tang is infested still. Any suggestions?
 
the white spots aren't parasites, they are the 'exit wounds' of where parasites emerged. 6 or so days in you will still see them. whenever i have a bigger infestation than normal with new fish I just add a transfer or two to the cycle just in case. as long as you are following procedure to the T, then TTM will be successful.

I was thinking they were exit wounds. They arnt bumpy and not as white. There was a huge infestation on the fish.

yep, just add an extra one or two transfers, making it 15-18 days total. fish should look nice and smooth by the time it is over. they heal pretty quick.

You are sterilizing and drying all equipment for at least 24 hours between transfers, correct?
