I have recently just added a couple new fish to my system. The system has been stable for about 3 years now. I have been running a UV stearlizer a magnum 350 sump and newly added protein skimmer that I built. The new fishes have been in the tank for about two weeks with no signs of anything wrong now the tang has the ick. The problem I have is I am just venturing into the coral field and there is NO WAY I am going to put copper in the water. What else can I do? Is it possible that it will pass? The bulb in my UV unit is only about 6 months old. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Fred

Man - ICK can be real hard to tame in a reef tank. I now have a QT tank to help me.
Start with soaking all food with Garlic, and call for Beth!!
