I agree. Just got some new lights (6-54watt T5-HO) that actually warmed my tank to aprox. 78*-82*. Not only has it helped with the ich situation (practically gone) but also helped with the brown algee growing at the bottom of my tank.
So how long do I keep the fish in the seperate tank and how much copper to I use? Like you said, I too believe its 'Ich.'
Thanks for the feedback.

The tank is fairly new and the temperature is somewhat constant (aprox. 73*). Have a nice small shrimp and a couple snails along with a few other criters as part of my clean up crew. The water quality is near perfect, given the fact the tank is fairly young, maybe only 6 weeks or so. There is roughly 75lbs of cured live rock (that came from an established tank). Also have a green mandarin goby and one other small fish that seem to be doing fine. Just a little history hoping it helps solve this mystery.
Good Afternoon All,
My fire saddleback clownfish has a bunch of these really small white dots (sugar like) on his body. Its caused his apitite and activity to really decrease. Does anybody know what this might be, and is there a cure?
Thanks,
Nick
Recently setup a 55g saltwater tank. Right now I have about 55lb of cured live rock and 40lbs of agronite. Filtration: 75g wet/dry with protien skimmer. Lighting: 2, 18'' 50/50 tube
