Can you get a picture of the "white" on his fins. The Blenny scratching and white on The Tang's fins does sound like Ich. Were they quarantined? How many fish do you have in the Display? Do you have a quarantine or hospital tank?

Hi, Norman,
If you wan't to bring him over, I'll see what I can do. QT tanks are empty right now. Just give me a little lead time to heat some water and tell me the salinity he's used to. No guarantees though, I might loose him on you. Otehrwise a picture would help.

sorry for the losses. We've all been through this at one point or another and it's no fun.

What about the rest of your fish? Is it possible that this fish died from something contagious? Did you take a picture of the dead fish? You better watch everything very closely for a bit and be ready to get fish into a hospital tank at the drop of a hat.

Sorry to hear that Norman. If I had known I could have helped the other day when you stopped by. LMK if you need anything else.
