I came from work today and start feeding my fish and my big yellow tang did not eat. Then I saw that he is fin all white like he is really old or something looks like snow all over the fins.

Eyes covered a littled with white film. and small yellow tang (2 times smaller) keeps attacking him. I tried to catch him and I did with no problem. He did not even see me coming. What is going? Any ideas?

thanks.

That's a fungal infection, and the eyes can recover. Get that fellow into qt and medicate and he may be on the road to recovery by morning.
 
but what medication? the only one I have is "Quick Cure"

and I just did the fresh water bath for 6 minutes with 5 drops Quick Cure. My QT is not ready yet it is only 3 days old.. (starting a new one)

what do I do? it is not eating
 
It appears to be marine velvet. Amyloodinum ocellatum. This disease does progress rapidly. Copper in a bare bottom hospital tank needs to be done now versus later.
