kole tang

I just received my first fish shipment from swf.com and got a kole tang and 4 b&w heniochus. I received the shipment yesterday. Today one of the heniochus was dead. Anyway, this evening when I got home from work, then kole tang looks like it was nipped at and has a little bit of white fuss on its side. The b&w are eating fine, but the tang is not. I do have Garlic Extreme from Kent, but have never used it before. They are all in a semi-quarenting 70 gallon. Before I put it into my 200 gallon. Any suggestions?

I second that. When I bought my kole he stayed hidden behind my LR for about a week before he got acclimated to his new environment. If he gets hungry he will eat and most likely pick at any alge on your tank.

I've notice the tang has what looks like ick on the upper part of his body, close to the dorsal fin. I know previously, he got stung by an anemone, but that sore looks better. Is this probably ick or
something else? What would be the best way to treat? I heard of using garlic?

It looks more like a sheet of cotton. It just covers a small amount
of area. It is right above the area where I believe he got stung.
