fish sick

[raz6200]

My fish have developed small white spots covering their fins and body. They seem to scratch on the coral alot. However their appetite does not seem to be affected. What could this be and how do I treat this??? Please help.

Does it look like salt sprinkles attached to the fish? It is most likely ich. It is quite common and easily treated. Read through the FAQ sticky at the top of this forum. It explains how to set up a quarantine tank and how to perform hyposalinity. There are also pictures of fish with ich and other diseases.
