By looking at the fish (the least infected one) with the

eye, it seemed that the FW dip helped some. But last night I took some close-up pictures with my camera after methylene blue bath, and they both seemed to have it worse than the night before. I'll get a good picture of the survivor and post it. It doesn't look like mucus, but it's very hard to tell by looking at it with the

Here are a couple of current pictures of my, for now, surviving clownfish. It's not perfect. He hangs out too far away from the sides of the tank for my macrolense to get a good picture.

Yeah, that is ich not brook. Use the garlic and do a couple of more baths. If FW worked better than the meth then stick with the FW baths. Do what you can for him until your refractometer comes in. Do you have water mixed for a change? If so then vacume the sand. This helps remove the parasites that have fallen off and are reproducing, which means less new ones that can attatch to the fish.
