I have a dogface puffer, and a yellow tang. I just got two clown fish 3 days ago. That night, my dogface started running into the rocks of the tank, and I noticed he had white spots, and an almost "flaking" type thing of his skin. He seems like he's going to be dead by morning. Im putting copper in the tank (For the last 3 days). The clowns died this morning; my tang is starting to get white spots on his fins now too. Puffer's top fin isnt working. Is there any hope to save him, if he's still alive by morning? What can I do to fix my tank?

Don't put copper in your display tank. What are your current water readings, ammonia and nitrite?
Please take a look at the FAQ Thread and the post there on ICH. What type tank do you have? If it is strick FO, you can do hyposalinity in your display.
