Fish rubbing against the live rock

[crazyaqua]

I have a niger trigger and coral angel so far everything is going well it has been setup for about month now they are in 75 gallon. All the water parameters are correct but the fish keep on rubbing on the live rock they eat normaly and dont appear to have any signs of disease. is there something else wrong?
Thanks

Fish rubbing on rocks is a symptom of a parasitic irritant. How long have you had the fish?
Likely the prelude to ich.

I have had them for about a month and half and they just started this last week. Should i use some melaflex for them?
Thanks

Melafix is basically worthless. Think about setting a QT.
Take a look at the post on QT in the FAQ Thread at the top of this forum.

Is there anything i could do beside setting up a QT ?
