Clownfish ICK...

[grind crunch]

I just bought 2 true percula clowns about a week ago from my lfs and I noticed a lot of little white dots on their fins. Is this ick or something else? I already had to deal with hippo tang ick enough... also what do you suggest to do to cure this sickness if it is ick?

Sounds like ich to me.
Hyposalinity treatment is best. Do you have them in quarantine?

I have a pair of black clown's,both were doing great when I decided to pick up 11 new additonal corals at one shot...
I placed al 11 in the display tank,next thing in the moring 1 of my black clown's have the ich...
what should have I done...
anyhow ich went away in 3 days....
hopefully it stays away...

nah, i don't have a quarantine tank so i just threw them in there. Will my invertebrates survive if I do the hypo salinity? i have never done it before.
