I'm in need of assistance here.
First let me say, I have seen some Ich spots on my fish come and go for almost 2 years. Not having much luck with QT, I have just tried to provide the best enviroment possible for my display. After nearly 6 months of not seeing anything, around 2 months ago I had spots reapperaing on a tang, an angel and my 2 anthias again. Then a week ago I lost the tang.
This entire time I have never seen a single spot on my clowns. Not one. Even yesterday, I was closely observing the tank and the clowns.
This morning they both look like a glazed doughnut.
It doesnt "look" like Ich spots but I dont know what else it could be. To be honest, I've never been very good in the fish diesase department.
Just to give a little recent history: I have not added ANY fish to the display in almost 2 years. I have been recently adding some coral frags, 2 days ago I did a normal weekly 40g water change but at the same time, I removed my skimmer. (Its been sold and I am waiting on a new one.) Yesterday I turned on my MH for the first time in Several months, for 1 hour to acclimate to the increased lighting...
Does this look like an explosion of Ich in less then 24 hours or do I have another problem?
