ok so im a newbie and i have a wierd thing going on in my tank. my clown fish has some sort of a fungus (white deposits on his head and around his eyes) and now he's changing color -kind of blotchy. anyhow, i figured this might be marine white spot or ich. what im wondering though is if one can actually see the parasites in the water from this disease. looking closely at my glass ive seen a few little salt like crystals on the glass. i thought at first that it was salt deposits but after putting my hand in the tank to see if came off i had to really scrape to get it to come off-furthermore, ive seen some little (tiny-practically microscopic) white things that seem to be crawling up and down on my aquarium wall. can these be parasites from the fish? or are these healthy little critters that are in most tanks perhaps from my live rock? please help...i set up a quarantine tank to medicate the clown but will those white things go away from my show tank? i have inverts so i cant medicate that tank...
